New Music From The Black

Somehow in our crazy world of music we missed this new track from Austin’s own The Black that just popped up on LHB feed.  The track “Love Don’t Need a Reason” is set to appear on the band’s new album Sun in the Day Moon at Night hitting stores October 12th.  The song is more proof that this band is one of Austin’s best and worthy of their A2W status on ATH.

Austin A2W: The Black

theblackWe’ve  been following Austin band The Black after fellow Ausinites Trail of Dead recommended them to us so we thought they’d be perfect for our artist to watch this week.  The band has been in and around Austin for quite some time now and have been playing everywhere in town that will have them.  Their sound mixes some old school rockabilly with a bit more modern pop sounds and fits in well with dive bars in small town Texas.  Expect a proper full length from the boys sometime in the next few months but for now check out this jam “Little Hits” from The Black’s last 45 single.  If you want to see what they’re all about live, head to the Stubbs indoor stage on Saturday evening shortly after Spoon finishes their 3rd show outside.  That one’s free if you have a Spoon ticket and $8 if not.
