Kevin McKinney of Soulhat was in the studio. We did a little reminiscing, and gave away some tickets to the sold out Soulhat show happening Saturday at Antone’s.
We played “Homer,” “Wiggin’,” and “15 More Miles” all from the Good To Be Gone album.
Far From Saints – “Faded Black” (Far From Saints) This is a collaboration between Austin’s Patty Lynn & Dwight Baker (of The Wind + The Wave) with Kelly Jones of the Welsh band Stereophonics. Spin magazine called the album “breathtaking.”
The Bright Light Social Hour – “Lifers Only/Death of a Lifer” (Emergency Leisure) TBLSH are super busy with the release of their new album a few weeks ago, and have a ton of tour dates coming up. They’ll be playing The Mohawk on 9/30. I was transfixed by this video of them playing live at the Howler Hacienda
Knuckle Child – “Boy Music” (Face Bone)
Elijah Delgado – “Pipe Dream”
A. Sinclair – “Firecat and the Small Balloons” (Sunshine Ghost) A Sinclair plays Saturday (8/26) at Sunny’s Backyard with Ram Vela & the Easy Targets
