Cut Copy Announces U.S. Spring Tour

Cut Copy is making one last tour of the U.S. before heading back in the studio to record the follow-up to In Ghost Colours. If you happened to miss their super packed show with The Presets at Emo's the day after ACL (we were there, check out our pics), you're in luck. The first stop on their tour after their European/Australian dates happens to be here in Austin at Stubb's with support from Matt and Kim, marking the third time both bands have been in the Texas capital this year. Tickets go on sale this Saturday (11/15) at 10am for $17.

The Presets / Cut Copy Are Coming To Austin!! (Updated)

Yep you read right, The Presets and Cut Copy will be making a stop here in Austin. This will be our third time seeing The Presets (opened for The Rapture and SXSW 2007) and second time watching Cut Copy (SXSW 2008). Both of their albums are have been getting a lot of attention on my iPod this year. They will be making an appearance at Emo's on Sept. 29, the day after ACL. Tickets are $16 and you can buy them here. This will probably sell out soon, so get on it and don't be left in the dark. Thanks to our buddies Switchburn for the heads up.

My buddy Chris introduced me to Midnight Juggernauts a few months back and I'm sure I will be writing about them more in the near future. I'm digging their new remix of Cut Copy's "Heart On Fire".

**SXSW Spotlight** Cut Copy

Cut Copy is an indie electronic rock trio who knows how to get down. Their music is catchy, just listen for yourself. They have toured with Daft Punk, Bloc Party, Junior Senior and fellow Australians, The Presets. Their new album, In Ghost Colours (produced by DFA's Tim Goldsworthy), will be released on April 8th on Modular. They are also playing Coachella this year and just announced a tour with another band I really like, Black Kids. I have a video down below of their new single, "Lights and Music".
