Today's Quick Mention: The Austin Film Festival begins tonight!
Feel free to recommend a few under the radar flicks that I should try and
see. Also, should I kick of this year's AFF with Meg Ryan and
Serious Moonlight or John Woo and Red Cliff? Seems kind
of like a toss-up, really.
One of my first shows after permanently moving to Austin was at the Mohawk with a local
act called Brazos, who at the time were opening for the soon
to be superstars White Denim. Since then I've followed along with what
main brain Martin Crane's been up to, anxiously awaiting a proper full
length, and now I have it. Look for Phosphorescent Blues on
November 24 via Autobus. Enjoy.

"I don't mind dying/When I make love to her" First of
all, while this can certainly float around and a fill a room
nicely, Brazos makes great headphone music, and I highly
recommend that you slap on a pair before hitting play.
That way you won't miss any part of the whimsical
arrangement or Crane's sincere vocals and lyrical gems.
On another note, if you're out and about this weekend Brazos
and White Denim will be playing a show at the Mohawk (crazy,
right?) on Saturday.
