📍 Crepe Therapy Café, 2273 31st Street, Boulder, CO
DJ Fa'Dorah, the 15-year Denver scene veteran who serves as the first official DJ for CU Buffs football, brings a Saturday afternoon vinyl series to Crepe Therapy Café's Boulder Junction location. The format is simple and participatory: show up between 1 and 3 PM, enjoy crepes, coffee, and shakes from the all-day café founded by Michelin-rated Chef Mawa McQueen, and let Fa'Dorah spin while the afternoon rolls. Bring a vinyl record you love and you walk out with a free shake. The series runs weekly, making it a low-key anchor for Boulder Saturdays whether you come for the music, the food, or both.
