The Czars remain Denver’s best-kept secret. In their lifetime, they simply couldn’t turn critical salvos into commercial success. Then, when the band split up in 2004 after their fifth album - the presciently titled iGoodbye/i - nothing was heard from any member for six years. So when their frontman John Grant reappeared in 2010 with his landmark solo debut iQueen Of Denmark/i, some thought he was a new artist, without a back story that stretches as far back as 1994, when the singer/songwriter/pianist met (bassist) Chris Pearson in a club in downtown Denver’s red light district.
