multimedia laboratory where the Velvet Underground played beneath projected films…actors auditioning, New York street scenes, experimental footage…all flickering across the band in real time.
Welcome to our version of those legendary sessions.
Midnight Cowboy performs an acoustic set of Velvet Underground songs and similar artists from that era, while locally-shot films of Mancos and Cortez life project onto the band. It’s our Southwest Colorado interpretation of Warhol’s Exploding Plastic Inevitable…where music, film, and atmosphere merge into one immersive experience.
The low-key acoustic setup honors the raw, intimate quality of the
Velvet Underground’s sound. The moving images honor Warhol’s vision.
The setting is purely Cortez.
Come experience a piece of 1960s avant-garde culture reimagined for our little town.

Carlton Harwood, guitar and vocals
Bill Cuskelly, guitar
Mo Murray, drums
Mark Stevens, bass
