As many of you well know, this weekend is the ever growing new festival known as Psych Fest put on by some great local companies and bands. This year’s event has expanded into a weekend long expedenture with an impressive lineup of local and national touring acts.

Show Review: Cut Copy @ Stubb’s (4/22)

April 25, 2011 brian.gray Leave a comment

Things are warming up in Austin. The music schedule is nuts. Just saw Foals, about to see Arcade Fire, Tony Bennett, Fleet Foxes, Echo and the Bunnymen, Beirut and more. Bad news for them, Cut Copy may have stolen their thunder. The Aussies set the bar very high, and we’ll all win if there is a better show this year. Holy Ghost! opened, more after the jump…

Show Review: Foals @ La Zona Rosa (4/21)

April 25, 2011 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

After their stellar performance at ACL this past fall, we all expected great things from Foals heading into last Thursday’s show at La Zona Rosa. For the most part, the night consisted of mediocre music and sub-par performances, until Foals dominated the evening.

Now here’s a show we here at ATH have had marked on our calendar for quite some time now. We somehow missed UK band Foals at ACL in October so our attendance at this show on Thursday night at La Zona Rosa is a guarantee. Opening support aint too shabby for this show either with Freelance Whales and The Naked & Famous. Don’t be an idiot, buy a ticket from a scalper and get inside.

Doors	9pm
Tickets	$11 @ Ticketweb

It’s a busy night in Austin on Thursday and you music fans are going to have some tough choices to make about which show you plan to attend. In the running obviously for us is a show at Emo’s by rock n rollers Titus Andronicus. Sure the band played there pretty recently, but you can always bet on a high energy packed show from these guys. Opening support for the evening is provided by our very own Austin friends Midgetmen and Cartright.

Show Preview: The Kills @ La Zona Rosa (4/20)

Tickets	$20 @ Frontgate

The crazy mad week of shows we have in Austin continues on Wednesday night with a show by veteran duo The Kills at La Zona Rosa. I’m sure most of you know the ATH fascination with Allison Mosshart so we promote that you find your way towards the front of the stage and enjoy the show. Making the evening that much more enticing, solid opening bands Cold Cave and The Entrance Band will also be on hand. This also gives us a great reason to finally share the band’s latest single “Satellite” which somehow never made it onto the site.

On a night that had me out for Hunx and His Punx headlining indoors at Emo’s, we were able to manage some last-minute access to bring you a quick review and some shots of The Raveonettes outdoors. Follow the jump for more.

Show Preview: YACHT @ Emos (4/19)

April 18, 2011 nathan.lankford 2 comments

Date	April 19th
Location	Emos
Doors	900p
Tickets	$14 from Ticketweb

Austinites get ready for one crazy music-filled week. We know this week could get expensive, but we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t point you in the right direction, and that, dear reader, is towards YACHT. Sure, Jona’s been making music with all sorts of people, my favorite being The Blow, but now that he’s focused on YACHT full-time, he’s hitting his stride. The duo will be embarking on their Road to Utopia tour, and Austin is one of the earlier dates. This bill also features Bobby Birdman and Love Inks, so we’re counting on you to hit up Emos and have a blast with this electronically-influenced evening. If you’re going to do it up this week, may as well get started here folks.

Show Review: Hunx and His Punx @ Emos (4/12)

Having been listening to Too Young To Be In Love for several weeks now, I can say with exact certainty that I was really anticipating this show. It had that throwback appeal, with hints of grit, which is exactly why I couldn’t wait to get to Emos on Tuesday.
