ATX Spotlight: A Little Rock From Sally Crewe

16576_10151818956882437_758950477_nIf you’re looking for rock music disguised as pop music with flairs of garage rock, then look no further than Austin’s own Sally Crewe. Crewe’s been around for a while, but she’s turning heads with this new single and title track of her upcoming album, “Later Than You Think,” which shows off her skills in the field of rock and roll. At first, the track seems like a solid rock tune showcasing the pop vocals and guitar hooks, but about two thirds of the way in, it takes a little turn for the darkness, and this is where Crewe really shines.  Sally Crewe is releasing Later Than You Think on September 22nd via 8 Track Mind.

Stream the Unblinking Ear Mixtape

unblinkingearFriday’s are best if they’re polished off with a nice mix tape, or a nice stream for the end of the day.  I figured you’d be best to wrap up the day with one from a whole bunch of bands that’ll keep your spirit up…not to mention it includes songs from some of our local favorites like Simple Circuit, Sally Crewe and Sweet Talk, not to mention ATH alumni, Literature. If you pick it up from the folks at Unblinking Ear Records, then you can read all about the recordings…such as where the work was done, who took part, etc…you know, if you’re into liner notes.  Anyways…every track offers something different, so enjoy your weekend and these tunes.
