Show Preview: Field Music @ Emos (9/29)

Date Wednesday, September 29th
Location Emos
Doors 900p
Tickets $10 from Ticketweb

Field Music is a band from England who’ve been putting out some significantly creative music over the last several years.  Their first album, Tones of Town, has a little bit more of a pronounced sharp edge, but they completely went off into the realms of exploratory post-punk with their latest record, Measure.  Honestly, had they not been smack in the middle of the Pavement and GBV shows, then this would have been the show of the week, but it very well could still be–these cats are that good. You will also be able to see Zorch and Gentlemen Rogues; each no slouch in their own right.  So, if you can’t make it to other shows this week, sell your 30 Seconds to Mars tickets and go see these bands!

Titus Andronicus @ Emo’s (9/1)

Date 9/1/10
Location Emos
Doors 9pm
Tickets $12 @ Ticketweb

Well ladies and gentleman summer has come to a close and we suggest the best way to celebrate/mourn would be to heal your wounds with some solid rock music.  We think the best way to do that is to head to Emo’s on Wednesday night for indie-rock n roll band Titus Andronicus.  Joining the band on stage are two solid locals Yellow Fever and Whitman.  Also don’t forget that The Strange Boys will be getting down on the inside stage!  All in all, this show should rock from start to finish and your face will be left on the floor.

Show Preview: Twin Sister @ Emos (8/23)

Date Monday, August 23rd
Location Emos
Doors 900p
Tickets $10 @ the Door

This show is surely going to be all the rage, even though I haven’t seen too many people talking about it.  Twin Sister has been blowing up the Interwebs with their fuzzy pop.  It seems like everyone has positive things to say, and that’s definitely not bad for an up-and-coming act.  Also featured on the bill is Memoryhouse and Sleepover, so you’re sure to get an evening of really well crafted atmospheric pop music.  Honestly, this show has the potential to be one of those shows we’ll be talking about in Austin for the rest of the month.

When are these Knuckle Rumbler kids not putting on some sick party these days?  Seems like they’ve always got the hot ticket in town.  Thursday night is no different at Emo’s with a dance party like no other featuring Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt, The Diamonds, Sphynx, and DJ tunes by Hot Britches side project Wolf Teeth.  I’d recommend that anyone looking for a party to make it out for this one.
