National acts aside, this year’s UMS will sport a veritable who’s-who of upcoming local bands. Denver’s The Yawpers, who have transitioned from local to national act, are probably the fastest-rising of the Colorado names here. But if you’re savvy to the local music scene, you’ll find a lot more to be excited about: Fort Collins’ Sound of Ceres, Denver psych bands Flaural and Plum and the elusive-but-promising Sunboy are just a few bands you should be triple-underlining when the UMS releases the 2016 festival’s schedules in July.
