Veronicavon Share Party Single

Supreme Billy Madison fans Veronicavon are readying their forthcoming LP, Deep End, with the latest single prepped to ease you into your Friday listening routine. The tune has a steady march to it, carefully utilizing a continuous groove that locks you into the track as you turn the volume up. Naturally, there’s a building tension throughout the song, but, Xuan Nguyen’s vocals allow the track to hang in a stationary setting, focusing on the wordplay and the vibe of what they’re trying to get you to enjoy. It’s low key in the best way, so look for Deep End to drop on February 9th via Born Losers.

Stream a New Loafer Track

loafer?Regardless of the fact that being a musician, in any city, seems to suck lately, Austin’s music scene is very much alive and kicking. One of the scenes I’ve kept my eye on is the group made up by Merdurhaus acts; today we’ve got a tune from the label’s Loafer. The project will release a brand new EP on April 1st (as long as it’s not a joke), and this single shows a little bit of the noodling twang that definitely pays homage to Mac Demarco…back in the home recording days. Still, I like the playfulness, such as including a soundbite mid track. Give it a twirl, and check out some of the labels other acts; there’s something for every body.

BGray’s SxSW Reflection

I had my camera. I took almost 4,000 pictures. That seemed like a lot, but once I factored in the number of bands, the odd things that have to be documented, the friends gathering for shenanigans and the eight long days involved, it really wasn’t surprising. I haven’t done the final tally, but it would be fair to say that I saw part of a set from around seventy bands.

It is my turn to give a rundown on bests and worsts of The Conference. The many highs were tempered by very few lows. I chased that BUZZ that drives the relevant music fan. My summary will be a little different because I did the whole damn thing; twelve movies, several Interactive and film panels and of course all the music.

So, plenty on the movies, panels and bands and a flurry of pics to accompany all that 411 after the break…
