As you've probably noticed by now, on June 30 we're helping sponsor a show that's happening at Spiderhouse Ballroom. A press page with all the info you could need can be found here, but we also thought it would be fun to highlight each of the acts and offer up some of our own opinions. Enjoy.


Show Spotlight: The Sour Notes (bar stage - 10pm)

The Sour Notes are a hard working, talented group that has churned out a few releases, each improving upon the last. They’re mostly known as an indie pop act that's drawn comparisons to the Shins and the New Pornographers, but the Sour Notes are much more than your standard indie band. Their sound is ever evolving, transforming, and surprising listeners. I arrived late to their bandwagon, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed exploring their discography, especially their latest record, Last Looks. Plus, lead singer Jared Boulanger has the most glorious mustache in Austin, which has to count for something.
