“ On Friday, February 5, local band The Sunnyside Ups will open for Grammy
nominated singer/songwriter Randy McAllister at The Lucky Monkey in Trinidad. This
show promises to bring a dose of high energy music to the area. The Sunnyside Ups
are comprised of Huerfano county musicians Jug Colangelo (lead vocals, guitar) and
Wendy McGehee (lead vocals, percussion, rhythm guitar). Rounding out the band
are Doug “Dig” Glenn (drums, percussion) and Traemon McCabe (bass guitar,
vocals). They call themselves “a versatile dance band, with an original repertoire that
spans Reggae, Blues, Soul, R&B and Rock”. Their music is heavily guitar driven and
has a strong root in the blues, though all their various influences certainly come
through. Members of the band have played with Edgar Winter, The Mighty Diamonds,
The Meditations, Sister Carol, Merl Saunders, Leon Russell, Melvin Taylor, and
others including local favorites Planet O. Fans of Planet O will undoubtedly enjoy this
band as well”
