Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Monday, January 19th.

What a vibrant start to the week here in Boulder, with Martin Luther King Jr. Day inspiring us all to reflect and celebrate progress. Kicking things off today at 3 p.m. at the Dairy Arts Center on Walnut Street, Motus Theater is hosting their 4th Annual Dr. King Jr. Performance alongside The Reminders, blending powerful storytelling with music that honors the civil rights legacy and reminds us how those ideals shape our communitys push for justice every day. Grab tickets online and feel the energy of this local tradition that draws folks together for something truly meaningful.

Over at CU Boulder, the Buffaloes mens basketball team is gearing up for a blockbuster historic rivalry tomorrow night at the CU Events Center. After a tough road trip with close losses to Cincinnati and their first-ever game at West Virginia, the Buffs at 12-6 overall and 2-3 in Big 12 play are hungry to snap a three-game skid against powerhouse Kansas, who lead the all-time series 126-40. Freshman sensation Isaiah Johnson is lighting it up with 15.8 points per game off the bench, topping Power 4 reserves nationally, while Barrington Hargress dishes assists like a maestro and Bangot Dak dominates the boards at 7.3 rebounds a game. Kansas brings star freshman Darryn Peterson averaging 22.2 points despite injuries, so expect a high-stakes battle tipping at 9:05 p.m. on ESPN. Wear black, cheer loud, and see if our Buffs balanced scoring fourteen games with four or more in double figures can pull off the upset that could boost their season and pack the arena with Flatirons pride.

Music lovers, tonights buzzing too. Head to the Aggie Theatre for Ninajirachi with 2charm and VIAZA, a Party Guru and 90.5 KCSU present thats perfect for dancing away the day. And keep eyes on the horizon: East Nash Grass hits the Aggie on Sunday, Rory Scovel brings comedy to Boulder Theater Friday, and Dead Floyd pays tribute the next night. These shows keep Boulders live scene pulsing, connecting us through beats that turn ordinary evenings into unforgettable nights.

In local governance news, a group of engaged Boulder County residents has launched a petition drive to expand the Board of County Commissioners from three to five members, arguing it would bring more diverse voices to decisions on everything from housing to open spaces that directly impact our daily lives here in the foothills.

Whether youre marching for change, hoops hyped, or melody hunting, Boulders got that forward momentum today. Stay inspired, stay local.

This has been Boulder Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
