This is fine.
Do512 did a good thing and hired a friend of the program. Formerly at Emo’s, Ross is good people and he was nice enough to invite me and the cameras over to one of the live sessions they have at the offices. This sessions artists were Riverboat Gamblers and then one of my personal favorites Black Joe Lewis. To see both in a tiny room, bonus.

Anyone looking for something fun to do with some great music on Saturday night should head out to Stubbs for a local show sponsored by Autobus Records, Birds Barbershop, Do512, and Covert Curiosity. The lineup features local favorites Brazos, Mark David Ashworth, The Weird Weeds, and one of my favorite new locals Sleep Good. The price is super cheap and apparently some free Lone Star will be coming out so you won’t want to miss this one. Below you’ll find a new MP3 from Austin artist Sleep Good which is basically a solo project from Will Patterson of Sunset. You can find more tunes and more info on this hot up and coming artist on the Autobus Records website.

To make the event even that much more special, we will all be there to celebrate the birth year of our dear friend Michael over at Sonic Itch.
