0 Good Morning From Shotgun

Hello! As I type these words, the caravan is barrelling towards Austin (ah technology!). Last night at SuperHappyFunLand was a lot of fun, makes sense since they have a super happy land with which to encapsulate said fun in Houston. Many thanks to those who came out and jammed with us. We had a great time and we hope to come back real real soon.

If you’re in Austin, check us out at the Nomad Bar on Wednesday, (you may even catch us sooner if you hang out on Sixth Street at the right time tonight) til then be well y’all!

Man, were those some good times.

And speaking of time, it appears spring break is a mere hours away – I can feel the itchy restlessness brewing on the college campuses – just make sure you’re not headed to Acapulco, ’cause my MGMT teacher says their cutting heads off like crazy over there.

0 SXSW: A Huge Success!

SXSW was a huge success! We 2nd lined all up and down 6th street all weekend – played a slammin’ showcase at the Agave Thursday night – and managed to busk enough cash to get back home (thanks to Best Buy for the per diem too!). The Austin Statesmen did a great video featurette on the whole occasion. Check it out here:

Yessir!!! Next up: Greensboro, NC band Holy Tent Ghost Revival will be joining Dirty Bourbon & New Grass at Cafe Prytania this Tuesday (March 23rd) at 9pm! Check the facebook event here.

Rollin’ down that river. Yessir indeed.

0 SXSW Post 1

After driving all through the night we awoke to a beautiful morning in Austin. After loading in at Agave Bar (512 Sixth Street if you find yourself attending SXSW and you’re looking for something to do at 8 tonight. But really you should come at 6 because 27 Lights go on then, followed by New Grass Country Club) we started wandering. Our adventure took us to a place called Mi Casa where we were enticed by free tamales. These free tamales led us to the music of Suzanna Choffel, and just as quickly were made fans of the music of Suzanna Choffel. Right now we are resting by the river enjoying the sunshine.

More updates as they are deemed necessary
