Moth! Fight! @ USAA (8/8)

August 7, 2009 RayRay Leave a comment

It’s been a great week for local shows and Saturday night is no different with a packed lineup of locals presented by KVRX at United States Art Authority (right next to Spider House Café). The bill features headliners Moth! Fight! along with fellow Austinites School Police, The Sour Notes and DJ Dan Gentile. It should be a fun night full of the best new bands Austin has to offer. Entrance fee is only $5 and things start off around 10pm.

Boycott

Boycotting on an empty stomach is never a good idea.

8/4 M. Ward @ Antones

August 6, 2009 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

The last time we were able to catch M. Ward was at the shores of Ladybird Lake during SXSW, and the intimacy of his tunes was missed as his guitar seemed to drift out onto the shores of on-lookers-most of whom knew very little of the man. Upon his return, we had heard he would be rocking solo, but we were greeted by so much more.

Li’l Cap’n Traivs @ Continental Club (8/7)

August 6, 2009 RayRay Leave a comment

Li’l Cap’n Travis has always been one of our favorite Austin bands and we always make a point to check them out when they play around town. So if you’re looking for some cheap local jams on Friday night, head to Continental Club for a set by the Austin alt-country band. Fellow locals Leatherbag and Aaron Blount and The Mockingales will also be playing before the headliners. Show starts around 10pm.

8/3 Glasvegas @ Emos

August 5, 2009 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Glasvegas has been around this web site for a long time now, and we’ve praised them on many a level, but we hadn’t seen them headline their own set just yet; we were lucky to catch them last night at Emos before we have to endure their tour with Kings of Leon in the fall. Ida Maria served as the evening’s appetizers, much to the joy of all those in attendance.

New Tunes from The Raveonettes

August 4, 2009 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

The Raveonettes have been around for a long long time, always sticking to their guns. Their newest album In and Out of Control is coming your way October 6th on Vice Records. Although they stay true to what they know, this single is a lot more upbeat with the female portion of the duo rocking it in an old school R&B sort of way. Based on the title of this song alone, it’s going to be an upbeat affair.
