Last Night: Annuals, What Laura Says and Jessica Lee Mayfield at The Parish

A fantastic lineup at The Parish the other night. Annuals played a great set and have only improved since we last saw them at Fun Fun Fun Fest. Black Keys/Dan Auerbach friend and contributor Jessica Lee Mayfield was stunning and our good friends What Laura Says gave us a sneak preview of what to expect the next time we see them at SXSW. Overall an excellent show. The tour continues with the dates below.

What Laura Says Announces Tour Dates

The Phoenix band What Laura Says (formerly know as What Laura Says Thinks and Feels) will be releasing their new album, Thinks And Feels, on August 19. Kinda confusing right? We're here to clear this up for you.

If you'd like a little more info on the band we wrote a little piece on them in March right before this year's SXSW.

We got to see What Laura Says a few times at SXSW, including a Lou Reed tribute. Later this month they will be returning to Austin to grace us with their presence at Stubb's BBQ. You can buy tickets here for $8. The rest of the tour dates are down below.
