Show Spotlight: Covert Curiosity presents Autobus Records Showcase (5/22)

Autobus Records is an artist-owned record label that has worked with and released albums by some of Austin's best indie bands, including Sunset, Brazos, Mark David Ashworth, Weird Weeds, and more. Autobus is a DIY record label that began in 2007, operated by a group of friends that grew out of the Tonewheel Collective, a bi-weekly acoustic show that was documented by the Austinist and the Austin Chronicle.

Do512 and Covert Curiosity are happy to give Autobus the spotlight, with a show at Stubb's indoor on Saturday, May 22, featuring Brazos, Mark David Ashworth, the Weird Weeds, and Sleep Good. Sunset will unfortunately (for us) be on tour and unable to join the party. Tickets are $7, on sale now at Front Gate Tickets. The first 50 people to show up with RSVP will get in the door for $5!

Show Spotlight: Custodian Album Release Party At Birds Barbershop (Tonight 11/21)

From Artifact Workshop:

Listen up! The album release of Ultra-Fresh by CUSTODIAN Is happening this Saturday November 21st at the Birds Barbershop on East 6th! Here, you will be treated to the East Austin Studio Tour artwork, hot toonz from DJ Andy (the Mouth) and lastly a clean and fresh performance from the guests of honor : CUSTODIAN. Lonestar Beer will be out in full effect making sure everyone is having a grand ol time but it is pretty hard to go to an event at Austin institution Birds Barbershop and not walk away with a giant grin on your face. This will be the first time the limited edition janitorial soapboxes containing a CD in them (along with a few other surprises) will be for sale. Our logic is that since the music that CUSTODIAN makes comes as a re-purposing puree of other materials , the packaging should be no different. The box will be hand numbered and be extremely limited edition making it a fine addition to any collection. Or it could rest beneath your kitchen sink.

We look forward to seeing you there to celebrate this great release! Please help us spread the word about this FREE show. It is from 5-9pm so you can still make plans for later in the night!

Tallest Day of Summer at Birds Barbershop 6/21

Apparently the Summer Solstice lands on Father's Day 6/21 this year and Birds Barbershop had the genius idea (as always) of celebrating  the occasion accordingly. All the Dad's out there that go in for a cut on Sunday will be treated to Free Lone Star tall boys at any of the four of the Bird's Barbershop locations. Great idea and also reminds me that I'm due for a haircut...
