ACIDIC played a great set at Higher Ground Music Festival here in Denver on August 23, expanding on an already growing Colorado fan base. The band has spent most of the year on the road, including two Denver dates, and won’t be back for a while so CMB caught up with the group about their video for the song “Copper Man,” just to keep their fans satisfied until their next pass through town.

CMB: Tell us about the process of making the video.

A: The video for “Copper Man” was a joy and an interesting process. We approached the director, Kelly King, and asked for ideas that were both unique and funny. He recommended spoofing infomercials and we jumped on it. The shooting of the video was succinct and seamless, it took no more than 2 days. I must say that I am very happy with the result. It just showed us the level of creativity we can achieve if we put our minds to work.

CMB: What are your summer plans?

A: Our summer plans will involve more writing and touring. We just finished our leg of the Vans Warped Tour. We are in the middle of pre-production on our next album which our fans can expect out sometime early next year. We are also preparing to embark on a late summer tour of the U.S. beginning with a hometown show at Doug Weston’s Troubadour in Hollywood.

CMB: How does Denver compare to other markets you’ve been through?

A: Denver has a unique energy that we have found nowhere else. From Illegal Pete’s Burritos to playing Herman’s Hideaway, we always enjoy ourselves. We are also fans of driving up to Boulder for a quick dip in the creek if the weather is nice. Denver was the first market outside of Los Angeles that we played back in 2010 and since that time, it has been a mainstay of our tour routing and we have developed a sizable fan base in the city.

CMB: Where can we find your music online?
