Colorado music fans have a lot to look forward to in January at The Broadmoor Sessions. Colorado’s own Big Head Todd and the Monsters will headline the annual concert weekend, and they’ll be joined by Hazel Miller & The Collective and the Boulder-based The Disruptors. Taking place January 16-17, 2026, the weekend blends live music, luxury accommodations and amenities, and blues-drenched rock ‘n’ roll vibes.
“We like playing more intimate shows,” the band’s frontman Todd Park Mohr told us recently. “It’s always a great opportunity for us. Obviously, the Broadmoor is an incredible venue. It’s a historic hotel. I’ve been going there since I was a kid, so that’s going to be a lot of fun for us.”

Mohr says his family couldn’t afford to stay at the Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond hotel when he was growing up, but they made day visits to the scenic Broadmoor. It wasn’t too far from his home in Littleton, Colorado, where Mohr and bandmates Rob Squires and Brian Nevin first began jamming together as friends at Columbine High School in the ’80s. (Jeremy Lawton joined the band later in 2003.)
From there the Monsters’ trajectory went from house parties to Denver and Boulder clubs while students at CU Boulder to a pair of independent albums to a record deal with Warner Bros. subsidiary Giant Records. Their 1993 label debut, Sister Sweetly, broke out nationally and hit platinum with rock-radio hits such as “Bittersweet,” “Broken Hearted Savior” and the above-quoted “It’s Alright.”…
