Simon Shackleton - Open To Close at Junkyard Social, Boulder – CHPTR 004

Simon Shackleton is an internationally acclaimed DJ, composer, and immersive storyteller whose events are created for those who seek depth, connection, and a journey through sound.

With a career spanning decades under aliases like Elite Force and Lunatic Calm, Simon is known for curating powerful, narrative-led experiences that defy the formulaic and embrace the unexpected.

From the intimate intensity of The One Series (One DJ, One Room, All Night) to the euphoric energy of the London Boat Parties, and the cinematic immersion of The Shadowmaker live show, his events are united by a singular vision: to bring people together through music with soul, meaning, and movement.

Colorado has long been a spiritual and creative home for Simon - in fact he loved it so much he is now a permanent Colorado resident! Since his first Denver appearance in 1998, he’s played countless unforgettable shows across the state — from legendary One Series sell-outs to wild nights with longtime friends The Fantastic Hosts and The Whomp Truck crew. The depth of connection forged on those dancefloors continues to inspire everything he does.

His latest project, CHPTR, is the next evolution – a space for emotional resonance, genre-fluid exploration, and sonic narrative. Crafted for connoisseurs, CHPTR events unfold like stories: immersive, intentional, and rooted in community.

The upcoming CHPTR // 004 takes place at Junkyard Social Club, a uniquely creative and intimate venue tucked just off Pearl Street in Boulder. With its renegade spirit, outdoor courtyard, and cozy indoor setting, it’s the perfect intimate container for a night that promises both groove and gravitas. Strictly limited capacity – early arrival essential.
