ATH x SXSW 2025 – A Playlist

Leave a comment

I’ll keep this simple. SXSW music kicks off this weekend with our annual ATH vs SOTO party at Hotel Vegas on Sunday, and then things ramp up to 100 starting on Monday. As usual, it should be a wild and fun time for the team and we hope to see some of you out there. Many of you mentioned the daunting task of wading through all the bands coming to town, so I sat down, combed the entire list, and built out a playlist for you to peruse and hopefully make things easier. If you hear something you like, seek it out. Something you don’t like it? Skip it and on to the next one. See ya’ll out there.

SXSW Interviews 2025: Last Waltzon

Leave a comment

As we continue to churn out some of these SXSW getting to know you pieces, I am finding a lot to look forward to next week when the music lineup really shows up in Austin. If you’re one of those still holding on to the old Austin narrative, why not venture out and see one of the hundreds of amazing bands coming to town? One such band we’d recommend is Montreal based outfit Last Waltzon, who were kind enough to answer our interview questions. You can find full responses, show dates, and tunes after the jump.

One week away people. Just one more short week away from the chaos and joy that comes with the annual SXSW festival in Austin, TX.

Hopefully another interview set, this time from Texas natives Saint Blonde, will further spark some musical interest in your ear holes.

SXSW Interviews 2025: Population II

Leave a comment

The ATH team is still thrown off with how early SXSW is going down this year, and it seems insane that things kick off in just over a week. How is this possible?!? Well, ready or not, things are set to go down soon as we close out the long AF month of February. Hopefully some interviews and guides will help you prepare yourself and find some bands to follow around town. Today our next interview set comes by way of Montreal based band Population II. Hit the jump for full interview, show times, and tunes.

New Single & Video From Jawdropped

Leave a comment

Los Angeles based outfit Jawdropped came onto our radar during the winter of last year with their stunning single called “Star.” Luckily, they are returning this year with more new tunes planned and a debut EP coming soon via the Californian’s new label Fire Talk. For today, we have this new single and video called “Skully” highlighting again the band’s ability to hit on some late 90’s alternative nostalgia while dropping in some of their own flavor with straight lovely dueling vocals and later intensity. I like.

Jawdropped will release their new EP entitled Just Fantasy via Fire Talk on April 25th. Pre-orders are now live.

SXSW Interviews 2025: Gold Star

Leave a comment

It is here folks. It is somehow time to start planning and prep for SXSW 2025. Things are happening a bit earlier this year in March so we are going to start churning out coverage now with less than a month to go before things kick off in Austin. It seemed like a no brainer for us to continue our quick hit interview sessions, offering a brief glimpse into the lives of these musicians and creatives. Starting things off with a bang this festival season, we have Los Angeles based artist Gold Star. You will find his full interview, along with current known show dates and streaming music, after the jump.

Tom Lark Wants to Rock & Roll Baby

Leave a comment

Don’t you just love that new artist smell? We love discovering new things around these parts and my daily discovery comes from Shannon Fowler who makes music under the moniker TOM LARK. Today he has shared with us this Americana soaked, upbeat number called “Rock & Roll Baby” and I suggest you check it out below. He will hit you with nothing but good vibes, featuring an upbeat, poppy, and somewhat twangy tune.

This track is part of the new TOM LARK album entitled Moonlight Hotel. That one is out on April 4th with pre-orders live now.

The Saxophones Return With New Single

Leave a comment

Oakland husband and wife duo The Saxophones have been gracing the pages of our site for near on 10 years at this point and they hold a special place in our ATH musical timeline. Through all of the singles and releases, To Be a Cloud from 2023 was seemingly the pinnacle of the group’s growth and evolution. But just when you think a band can’t possibly offer you more, they go and release a beauty like this new track “Burning with Desire.” It has a real loungy and chill vibe to help ease you in to this gloomy morning. Without mincing further words, I’ll just recommend you hit that play button below and enjoy.

Check Out Wildflower From Celebrity

Leave a comment

Relatively new Chicago based outfit Celebrity originated after band members Drew Brown, Kevin Maida, and Chris Mills had a bit of down time away from their main groups. This led to a self-titled EP in 2022, and now another 4 song EP entitled Automatic Charger which was released earlier this week. For a preview of the EP and what the band is all about, check out the A-side single “Wildflower”, with accompanying video, below. It’s a driving rock tune, with hints of garage, and a downright harder nature fitting for the band’s hometown.

You can stream the entire new EP over on bandcamp.

 

Free Range Shares Hardly

Leave a comment

Chicago based Sofia Jensen and their musical work under the moniker Free Range has been some of my favorite music to go back to again and again over the last couple of years. Since the release of Practice almost two years ago, I have been eagerly looking forward to more jams as they come our way. Today the wait is over, as Sofia has just hit us with this emotive stunner called “Hardly.” It’s hard to truly put enough words of praise on to Free Range, as I think the songwriting is without compare – at least in the singer/songwriter genre as it currently stands. Outstanding stuff from a promising new musical talent.

This track is on the new album entitled Lost & Found which is due out on March 28th via Mick Music. Pre-orders are live now.
