Billy Reid/Third Man Records Austin Shindig
|
Dan sends in his SXSW 2015 reports.
His first visit is to the Billy Reid/Third Man Records Austin Shindig, presented by K-SWISS, which is taking place today, Wednesday, March 18, from 11:30 am – 8 pm at Weather Up, located at 1808 E. Cesar Chavez.
This is the fifth annual Austin Shindig for Billy Reid and media partner American Songwriter Magazine, and the third year the Alabama-based fashion company will return to Weather Up in East Austin.
Dan writes:
I had heard previously that Steve Gunn is for guys that like guitar-based bands. Similar to Television. Lots of droning and interplay between the two guitarists. Good way to start the day.
Gunn's latest album is Way Out Weather, out now on Paradise Of Bachelors. Expect to see Gun's next album to be out on Matador Records.
Bully is from Nashville.... noisy pop rock. Lots of fuzz - guitars and bass, I'm sure they like bands like Hole. Screaming choruses and the like.
Bully will be on tour all spring in the US with fellow Nashville grunge band JEFF The Brotherhood. They have also announced a string of June dates supporting Best Coast, UK headlining shows and festivals in both the US and UK including The Great Escape in Brighton, Northside in Brooklyn and Pitchfork Festival in Chicago.
Bully's remaining SXSW schedule:
Next up is Olivia Jean, full of sass and great pop tunes. She played solo and Black Belle's material. Judy thinks Jean's a little like Blondie and Chrissie Hynde thrown in.
Jean's album Bathtub Love Killings is available now via Third Man Records.
Natalie Prass' voice is getting stronger after all of the touring. Fun set including a Janet Jackson cover and a song she said was a MF'ing Disney song which she proceeded to sing holding a plastic Godzilla. She will be in Minneapolis in May at the Triple Rock. Wrong venue for her, but next time she will be in a bigger room.
