Post Punk Brilliance: Sweeping Promises live at Austin Psych Fest

Joaquin Lewis Local Music Journalist Amidst the growing crowd surrounding the small and enclosed Janis stage of the Far-OutLounge, bassist/lead vocalist Lira Mondal and guitarist Caufield Schnug enter with a radiating energy.

Bossa nova in the springtime

Soleil Caouette Music Journalist  Introspection by Luiz Bonfá This album produced in 1972 is exactly what its title claims; a deep dive into the mind of Luiz Bonfa. Introspection is filled with airy guitar and classical harmonies that sound incredibly improvisational. The track “Enchanted Mirror” quite literally reflects the inner workings of his mind by creating a hypnotic piece that pulls the listener in by his guitar strings. This album […]
