Voxtrot @ Emo’s (6/3)

Location Emos
Doors 9pm
Tickets $12 @ Ticketweb

All good things must eventually come to an end right?  Well it seems fitting that the farewell show for legendary indie Austin band Voxtrot takes place at Emo’s on Thursday night.  The ATH crew has been watching the band their for years and we will of course be in attendance to send them off in style.  Voxtrot will have opening support provided by Cry Blood Apache and International Waters.  Later guys.  You will be missed by all.

Annuals @ Emo’s (5/19)

Date 5/19/10
Location Emos
Doors 9pm
Tickets $12 @ Ticketweb

Hell yeah Emo’s, it looks like you’re getting back in this game of booking top indie bands and we couldn’t be more excited.  Seriously, doesn’t it feel like the venue has made a huge jump in their bookings over the past few months after a short lapse?  Regardless of what you think, the venue has a great lineup of buzz worthy bands for cheap cheap cheap on Wednesday night.  The bill is headlined by Annuals with Most Serene Republic and What Laura Says rounding out the solid night’s event.  Oh and it’s inside so that’s cool.

Fang Island @ Emos (5/18)

Date Tuesday, May 18th
Location Emos
Doors 700p
Tickets $10 @ the Door

Not a whole lot has really been said or talked about in regards to Fang Island, of course, that’s if you ignore their glowing review on Pitchfork.  Their combination of guitar hooks with various electronic touches is precisely what you expect a band like this to be.  They’ve got larger than life swinging melodies, gang vocals (which you know are all the rage) and an overabundance of hooks.  Why wouldn’t you want to be there?  You can even catch sets from other bands such as Hollerado, Zlam Dunk and Agent Ribbons.  The best part seems to be that doors open early, so you can catch some great tunes, then head right back home for a decent night’s sleep. So you really have no excuse.

Caribou @ Emos (5/16)

Date Sunday, May 16th
Location Emos
Doors 900p
Tickets $15 from TicketWeb

For those of you into collage music, and we know there are many of you out there, you’ve got to be salivating at Sunday night’s show over at Emos.  First, you get to share a night with the very exciting Toro y Moi, which everyone loves more than Sleigh Bells (that’s saying a lot).  Then, to close off your night, you get to let Caribou close out your night with a spectacular blend of electronica and pop melodies.  He’ll probably play a great deal of material off his recent album, Swim. Sure, the show probably fits better as music for your Sunday morning, but why not wind down a glorious weekend of fun by closing the curtains at Emos?  Exactly, we’ll see you there.

TV Torso @ Emo’s (5/15)

One of Austin’s finest up and coming bands TV Torso is playing at Emo’s on Saturday night along with some other great local talents.  The hot buzz band will be joined by fellow locals Follow That Bird! and Hundred Vision(formerly Corto Maltese).  Should be a solid night for the best talent Austin has to offer.

These United States @ Emos (5/4)

Date Tuesday, May 4th
Location Emos
Doors 900p
Tickets $8 from Ticket Web

It’s a slow week in the Austin music scene, so you better catch on to the good shows while they’re here. These United States will bring their energetic pop tunes, which we’ve talked to you about before, to Austin this Tuesday night.  They’ll be taking the stage with local bands Zookeeper and Jesse Torrisi.  Everything about this show indicated a good time: you have good tunes from all bands and its only $8!  Sounds like you already have plans for this Tuesday night.

Dr. Dog @ Emo’s (5/1)

Date 5/1/10

Tickets $18 @ Ticketweb

Seems like Dr. Dog mine as well just move to Austin huh?  It sort of seems that way with all the shows they keep playing in our little town.  This time they’re at Emos along with fellow ATH favorite Deer Tick.  Should be your best show option for Saturday night.
