Stream Cry About It LP from Liz Burrito
If you’ve hung out in the Austin music scene for the last decade or so, you’ve likely caught Liz Burrito performing in any number of your favorite bands such as Que Pasa or Kay Odyssey. But, this last week, while I was on vacation, she dropped her latest LP, Cry About It…and it might be one of my favorite things to come out of Austin this year. The songs bounce between country-fried ballads to dreamier textured pop tunes; I particularly keep coming back to playing “False Hope,” which reminds me of something Hope Sandoval might have foreshadowed. “Feeling Window” takes a nod from a lot of the San Francisco no-pop bands, drifting in like the haze from the agricultural burns down South. And, if you’re looking to something that feels akin to her more rock-oriented tunes, might we suggest out the closing ripper, “Spirits of the Hidden Cloud.” Get into the whole thing below.
