Letter to the Editor: Sen. Michael Bennet is a likeable guy, but his campaign has some issues

That is the kind of senator we need in Congress. I was also disappointed in Sen. Bennet’s newer ad because it reeks of traditional party politics. It falsely paints challenger Joe O’Dea as a radical anti-abortion candidate. It’s true he voted against unrestricted abortions. However, O’Dea’s...

Local artists Satellite13 and Kevin Danzig release new albums

Kevin Danzig loves a good story. The former Summit County resident who now lives in Avon has been a troubadour for decades, crafting lyrical works that touch on all sorts of topics. For example, his 10th album released in 2020 had songs about the Rocky Mountains and Albert Einstein. For his 11th album, “Holland Cafe,” the collection centers on a fictional painter named Sara. “She’s An Artist,” the opening song, tells the tale of a barista in London with the creative outlet. Danzig’s girlfriend made the album’s cover art in a childlike style, and it shows pictures crafted by Sara that hang in...
