Cold War Kids In Austin (10/24)

The Cold War Kids will be playing a couple shows in Austin this Friday.  First one is a free show at Waterloo Records going down at 5pm with free keg beer of course.  Second show of the day takes place at Emo’s with A.A. Bondy in support.  Better try searching craigs list if you wanna make it to the Emo’s show because it’s been sold out for a while now.  Here’s Cold War Kids most recent single “Something is Not Right With Me”.

Ham1

I read a little blurb about this band, Ham1, on MOKB and thought we’d give them a little love as well.  The band hails from Athens, GA and plans to release their third LP, The Underground Stream, sometime this fall.  If you aren’t feeeling to spendy, you can downloaded a free copy of this album on the band’s website! While there, why not pick up the entire Ham1 catalog?  It’s also free.  Find out what this band is all about with opening track to their new album “Will You Ever See Me Again?” below.

Dressy Bessy @ Emo’s 10/16

Dressy Bessy seem to be on the verge of “making it” as artists.  The band has been around for over 10 years now but it seems like they are finally gaining notariety in the blog/music world.  That being said, you better seize the opportunity now to see them at a smaller venue like Emo’s Lounge.  The band will be playing the Jr. version of Emo’s on Thursday with doors at 9pm and tickets only $8.  Latest single “Electrified” can be heard below.
