Over the last five years Austin, TX has become the new Seattle.

I saw and heard this band for the first time at Bonnaroo while tripping my balls off... fell in love. Such a great sound.
I heard them for the first time this year in Bossier City, LA. Really cool, really laid back, and easy to talk with. They did a show with Vietnam and some local band I can't remember. It was the worst hole-in-the-wall venue but really cool atmosphere despite all. And again...the band kicks ass!

I've seen them live twice in Seattle. Once opening up for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and about 2 weeks later headlining (with Vietnam). They're fucking brilliant.
