Octopus Project @ Mohawk (7/17)

Date 7/17/10
Location Mohawk
Doors 8pm
Tickets $12 from Front Gate

The 101x Homegrown Live series continues their trend of solid local shows with another one set for Saturday night at the Mohawk featuring headliners Octopus Project.  The now veteran locals will be joined on the stage by fellow locals Tia Carrera and Mother Falcon.  After the early show wraps up, the inside stage will feature sets by Record Hop and Sundress.  Anyone living in Austin that hasn’t seen Octopus Project live, needs to get off their ass and make it to this show.  In the meantime, check out an interview we did the guys (and gal) a couple years ago during ACL.  I’m also gonna post an old favorite tune of mine in hopes that they play it on Saturday.

Of Montreal @ Mohawk (5/23)

Date 5/23/10
Location Mohawk
Doors 8pm
Tickets Sold Outz

Oh man oh man.  Don’t you just love living in this city?  When I see things like huge indie band Of Montreal playing at a smaller venue like Mohawk, I just get all warm and tingly inside.  Hopefully you already got your tickets to this sold out show on Sunday or you’ll be stuck  scalping for a good time.  The visually and musically pleasing band will have opening support from Noot D’Noot and a solo set by James Husband.  Try to make your way to the inside stage as well for a set by hot locals Mother Falcon.
