Be sure to check out Going for Gold.
WE WERE THE STATES
wewerethestates.com
The last time we saw We Were The States, Andrew mentioned that they were doing SXSW and that sounded like The Hives and The Vines, which is not in bad company at all. Well, since then, the band's released their sophomore album last November called Rasa, available on Chicken Ranch Records. The free song they're offering is called "Gold".
Also, guess what? They're doing SXSW again with the following dates:
Their latest single is called "Hot Waves", and the video for it shows the band doing late-night acoustic, walking about Nashville.
GOLD MOTEL
goldmotel.com
I caught Gold Motel last year, when they were just starting up, the big buzz was that it was headed by Hush Sound's Greta Salpeter. Although I thought Hush Sound broke up, apparently, according to the Wikipedia, they're on hiatus.
From my recollection, Salpeter was really in charge on stage. I mean she's certainly no stranger when it comes to playing to a crowd. See for yourself as they perform The Supremes song, "You Can't Hurry Love". I actually don't have their debut album, Summer House, but expect it to sound like they're influenced by Motown Records, based on that cover song.
Yep, as expected, they're turning up on their first ever SXSW gig to play Billboard Showcase and CNN Party! Exciting:
FOOL'S GOLD RECORD
foolsgoldrecs.com
I Heart Comix' Franki Chan and Fool's Gold is having a "Past Yo Bedtime" party this week. Wish I was in Austin, you know?
Can't say I know too much about underground comics, but I can tell you that Fool's Gold Records is based out of New York and have signed such dancey artists like Kid Sister and Chromeo (who we have mentioned in the past).
I guess, there's really not much to add, except you have to RSVP for all the juicy details regarding location and full lineup. Since I'm not attending, I couldn't tell you who's playing (obviously you should check some of Fool's Gold's artists to get an idea).
