By Adrian Escareno Local Music Journalist On Thursday, I had the pleasure of traveling back in time to 2010. Austin lived up to its reputation as the Live Music Capital of the World, with Emo's hosting an unforgettable, sold-out show headlined by Foster the People. With their ACL Festival performance looming the very next day, the band delivered a surprising and energetic set. I have to admit, I went […]

By Natalia Velazquez Music Journalist On August 5, I attended a concert for the El Paso band, Late Night Drive Home at Empire Control Room and Garage in Austin. Late Night Drive Home is one of my favorite bands of the indie rock genre, so when I saw they were going on tour I bought tickets immediately. They are a four-person group that really came into their sound in 2021 […]
By Harriet Bernard Local Music Journalist With Austin being one of the most recognizable music capitals of the world, many artists – both young and old – find their way into its lively music scene. While some artists are just getting started with their music careers, others have been in the game for years. Austin-based The Push and Shove is a five-piece band. Coming from differing musical backgrounds, each of […]
By Lillian Jones Music Journalist The self-proclaimed “boy band with titz” has done it again! The rapidly growing fanbase of Die Spitz was pleasantly surprised this Thursday night, January 12, 2023, with a new album release titled, “Teeth”. Austin locals Boogey, Ava, Chloe and Kate released their debut EP “The Revenge of Evangeline” only six months ago on July 29, 2022, and have since then teased new songs at recent […]
By Madison Lehr (KTSW) and Keller Welton (KJHK) We concluded the weekend at Stubb’s to meet with Marlon Magnee of La Femme, who was as much and more of a French icon as we imagined.

Marlon: Yeah, we played in 2014 […]
