ATH Interviews: Henry Clay People

As we lead up to our little ACL Festival in October, we here at ATH want to start focusing in on some of the lesser known acts coming into town.  Our first look brings us Glendale, CA based indie group The Henry Clay People.  Lucky for you and the ATH crew, this band will be making a stop in town next week with Against Me! before their ACL Festival slotted date.  To preview that show and their ACL appearance, we spoke with band member Joey about their current tour and their brand new LP Somewhere on the Golden Coast.  Follow the jump to read full interview.

Passion Pit @ Stubbs (6/18 + 6/19)

Date 6/18 + 6/19
Location Stubbs
Doors 7pm
Tickets Both Sold Out!

So a little bit of a lengthy show post here so read carefully for all information you need.  First up, Passion Pit has their highly anticipated shows with Tokyo Police Club and Brahms planned for Friday and Saturday night at Stubbs.  Both those shows are sold out, but a quick craigslist search shows a slew of tickets going for fairly reasonable prices.  You can also catch a free set by Tokyo Police Club and Passion Pit at Waterloo Records around 6pm.  I’d also recommend an interview we did with Passion Pit during ACL and a show review from a year ago.

MGMT @ Stubbs (6/6)

Date Sunday, June 6th
Location Stubbs
Doors 700p
Tickets SOLD OUT

We’re not sure exactly how this show will work out, considering a lot of people have underestimated the latest effort from MGMT, Congratulations, but we think that regardless of your thoughts on recent work, the show will be nothing short of amazing.  It’s bound to be filled with hits from the past, and the uber-creative new tunes.  Unfortunately, the only way to get in to the show, if you don’t have tickets, is to get ripped off on Craigslist.  Tickets were going for over $70 last time I checked. We’ll be sure to get solid photos for you.  You’ll also be treated to great tunes by up-and-comers Tame Impala.

Autobus Records Showcase @ Stubbs (5/22)

Date 5/22/10
Location Stubbs
Doors 9pm
Tickets $5 with RSVP @ Do512

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.
