Being the new kid at school can go two ways: you hide and get cast to the default table or you become the subject of conversation. These new kids moved to Austin only last year, started Wonderb**** in December of 2013, and performed in a CMJ showcase last month.

In the city of “weird,” Wonderb**** played a show at Lambert’s (Austin) on November 7 and followed with a tour to Los Angeles.
