fun.

fun. - an entirely lowercased and abruptly ending assertion evoking understatement. How deceptively devious. Come the end of March, when the SXSW hashtags are all tallied, I’m sure the chatter of their name will be much more uppercased and exclamatory. And how will it not be? FUN! is much more deserving of the band behind the truly awesome sophomore effort that is Some Nights. Melding a stunning array of various inspirations to craft a powerfully theatric album filled with heroic Queen-like harmonies, fun. is sure to be a band to garner plenty of coverage come March.

:fun. - Some Nights:

:fun. - We Are Young (Acoustic):

PS - You can find all of the staff's "Favorable Mentions" on one page right here.  Also, we advise that you use Do512 and Showlist Austin to look for shows that feature our recommended artists.
