With about three months to go until UMS 2013, event organizers have tipped us off to another group of acts added to the lineup.

This week, thieves, we’ve got free Colorado music for you to download from piano rocker A. Tom Collins, Tin Horn Prayer’s Andy Thomas, and outlaw alt-countryman Ryan Chrys.

A few months after signing to the Denver-based label Greater Than Collective, A. Tom Collins has announced their debut album “Stick & Poke” comes out next month.

For the third year, Illegal Pete’s and the Greater Than Collective hosting the Starving Artist Showcase at SXSW. Find the SXSW 2013 RSVP here.

From up north of Denver, the Fort Collins-based SpokesBuzz music organization is heading all the way south to Austin, Tex., again this year for its own SXSW party.

The Greater Than Social Club debuted Wednesday night at Lannie’s Clocktower Cabaret with A. Tom Collins and comedian Sean Patton.

The marriage of music and comedy is often an uneasy one, as countless bands and stand-ups have found over the years. But when it’s done right (see David Cross and his early 2000s Sub Pop tour, Bonnarroo’s comedy tent, South by Southwest, etc.) it provides a unique space in which the two art forms complement each other– or at least a drunken variety show in which it’s impossible to get bored.
