Today's Quick Mention: Be sure to drop by tomorrow and witness Dan
Corbin's introductory post here at SOTO! He'll be helping John Michael
cover anything and everything around Austin, which means every Wednesday you
can expect something related to the local music scene. Awesome, right?
With a a second straight entry that deals with another one of their artists,
I can only assume that Barsuk has somehow managed to take control of me.
Oh well. At least Rocky Votolato couldn't have a more different sound
than Phantogram. Expect to see the veteran (and Texas-born)
singer/songwriter put out his third solo effort, True Devotion, on
February 23. Enjoy.

Votolato - Red River:
I hate to say it, but I did approach this with a "if you've
heard one Rocky song, you've heard them all" kind of
mindset. But, of course, that was a wrong move on my
part, as this turned out to be him in an obviously
comfortable and inspired state. Can't wait to get a
hold of the new LP so that I can see if he has totally moved
on from the almost too-pretty folk tunes that littered his
previous releases.
