Fantastic Negrito, 10/23/2016, Stubb’s Austin, Photos – Write-up

Fantastic Negrito (Xavier Dphrepaulezz) owns the stage from the moment he steps on until the last note! His emotive “blues with punk attitude” filled the room and no one could take their eyes off him. Xavier, along with his band comprised of Tomas Salcedo (guitar), Nathan Pedley (bass), Joshua Nash …

KONGOS, 10/22/2016, Emo’s Austin, Photos – Review

Written by Greg Ackerman South Africans by way of Arizona, KONGOS made a stop at Austin venue, Emo’s Saturday evening in support of their new record, “Egomaniac.” The four brothers Daniel, Dylan, Jesse and Johnny play alternative rock but it’s a far cry from conventional music.

Calliope Musicals, 10/14/2016, Barracuda Austin, Photos – Write-up

It’s no secret that Calliope Musicals is one of our favorite bands live, streaming and answering questions.  Friday night, they had the difficult task of playing between TINNAROSE, who just released an album and Sweet Spirit, who’s kicking off their fall tour.  Calliope Musicals did not disappoint, providing the high …

Mega Ran, MC Lars, and mc chris, 10/7/2016, Sidewinder Austin, Photos – Write-up

Written by Bang Ho If you thought Mega Ran was just an opener to be passed over at the nerdcore show, you’d be dead wrong.  Forty minutes before he hit the stage, there was a line outside Sidewinder and inside you’d think the headliner was about to take the stage.  …

Jack Garratt, 10/7/2016, Stubb’s Austin, Photos – Write-up

Written by Bang Ho While there are numerous one man/woman bands these days with the advent of digital loopers and synthesizers, few wow as Jack Garratt did at his show at Stubbs. As if his distinct voice dynamically runs from soulfully low and grizzled smoothly to a sweet falsetto that …

Two Door Cinema Club, 10/7/2016, Stubb’s Austin, Photos – Write-up

Written by Bang Ho Two Door Cinema Club is not just a band that captures well composed melodies in the studio, they are an exemplary touring one to boot –the full package, stage performance and musically.  They had seven huge video displays that were about 15 feet high and four …
