Saturday’s Eats & Beats Festival in Englewood, Colo. brought live music, a variety of beer and yummy food to a stretch of “the South Broadway Mile.” The free event made sure to drive those from the city to the Englewood sector of Broadway to hear music from Ian Cooke, the Samples, Nathaniel Rateliff and more, playing throughout the day from noon until about 10 p.m. The crowd grew in numbers as the day wore on, and by the time Rateliff took the stage, there was little elbow room left for double-fisting. After such a successful debut, we won’t be surprised to see the festival return next summer.
