This past July, a herd of music crazed fans piled into the New Braunfels river-side venue for two nights of Austin’s favorite band Ghostland Observatory. After a long day of floating the river, the braided singer and caped keyboardist’s sounds were the perfect way to end your day. However, for some, Ghostland merely served as an [...]

There is the Italian drummer with a fro, the red-head hipster cowboy with his sultry rock voice, the Dazed and Confused look-a-like who [...]

With Drew Barrymore and many others in attendance to see the 10+ band at the SXSW PureVolume 4AM show, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros kept us awake and rowdy with their jam-rock-grab-an-instrument- and-wail-attitude.
