In my fourth day of CMJ, I made tracks to catch up with 1,2,3, a band from Pittsburgh who were heading into James Iha's recording studio (complete with Smashing Pumpkins memorabilia), Stratosphere Sound, to lay down a few live tracks as part of the Fred Perry Artists Lounge sessions. They were quite the tight band... playing some classy rock n' roll. They listened to plenty of Beatles growing up, I'll tell you that much! Stay tuned for our chat with them!
Local heroes Cassette Kids returned to the Oxford Art Factory on Friday night, performing to a sold out crowd who gave the four piece a true pop star reception. To thank us, they brought lasers.
The SXSW chats continue at the Aussie BBQ in Texas!
Toot toot! The Bacardi express arrived right on schedule at Luna Park on Saturday night, pulling right up to the toothy mouth door of the amusement park. Take note City Rail!
