Gilian Prado Music Journalist A good friend of mine (Saidif) had recommended the artist Alex G to me and showed me some songs, deep cuts and the artist stayed on my radar. Later I stumbled across their song entitled Mary. As someone who is into post punk fast paced, garage rock, angsty and full of vigor music, this track was not something that would normally become a song id listen […]
By Andrea Moor Music Journalist Since moving out to San Marcos, I’ve quickly become acclimated to the ever-growing beauty and significance this town holds. With the vast diversity of the student populous to the established families with generations living in this town, I decided to go around asking people about their favorite musicians, hoping to see if there was any correlation or mass breakthrough in music taste.

By McKenna Wells Local Music Director I could not tell you how stoked I was to see Paramore on the list of headliners for Austin City Limits Festival in 2022. Despite being a dedicated fan of the band, I had never seen them live but ACL gave me the opportunity to see them for the first and second times. For weekend one, I was ready and lined up at the […]
Sophia Gualy Music Journalist Up and coming British indie band, Wet Leg leaves their listeners eager for more with their 2022 self-titled album. The band, consisting of members Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers, is your ultimate indie girl group that you have been searching for.

Joel Milton Music Journalist As the days keep passing us by, the fall is quickly creeping up. Shorter, crisper days with leaves turning from a healthy, hearty green to a crumbly, lifeless brown call for some appropriately somber albums to listen to as the days get darker and the skies get cloudier. So, while you wander the greying streets with only jack-o’-lanterns outside homes and the orange glow from their […]

Being her first time in the states, touring with King Gizzard, we hopped on the opportunity to speak with her. Keller: You’ve been on tour with King Gizzard. How has tour been? Leah: It’s been really […]
By Keller Welton (KJHK) and Maddy Lehr (KTSW) Our third night of Levitation was spent at Mohawk to see Hunx & His Punx and Death Valley Girls. Outside the venue, we met with Bonnie Bloomgarden of Death Valley Girls, who was impressively dressed as Lydia Deetz. Keller: How is Austin? How is Levitation? How is Levitation treating Austin’s frequent visitor bands? Bonnie: It’s so cool, we just flew in late last […]
By Avery Viers Local Music Director Hosted Thursday through Sunday of Halloween Weekend each year, LEVITATION has been Austin’s premier Psych Music Festival since its establishment in 2008. In celebration of LEVITATION’s 10-year anniversary, the festival’s planning committee chose to opt for a non-traditional festival format. Compared to traditional formatting of festivals like Austin City Limits at Zilker Park, non-traditional music festival schedules spread their lineup across multiple venues. Despite […]
