Two Girls In Town: Knuckle Rumbler’s 7th St. Shindig (by Ashley Cass & Rachel Donnan)

Tuesday night was one of those evenings which made us remember why we love Austin. With an ACL taping for The Roots and John Legend, Chromeo at Stubb's, Holy Ghost! at (Stubb’s) and Malverde, there was more quality live entertainment on one weekday night than most cities see on a weekend. While we didn’t make our way to any of the above mentioned, we did hit up the Knuckle Rumbler’s 7th street block-party. With side by side dance parties at Red 7 and Beauty Bar, seventh was where it was at… on this particular Tuesday Boozeday.

The Zoo, an afterparty for the Chromeo show held at the Beauty Bar, featured DJ sets by locals Hoodie Allen, Premode and Brooklyn based Sammy Bananas .

Vanessa Gonzales, known for her blog Sailor Legs and promo work with spiced rum Sailor Jerry’s (one, you’re done.. particularly at The Side Bar) began her evening at Beauty Bar with an intention to continue on to Red 7 and see Questlove (drummer for The Roots) on the 1’s and 2’s.

Prepmode is probably one of the best DJs in this city, all of his mixes are really clean, he’s one of few DJs that I’ve never heard train wreck a mix. He’s skilled and his track listings are amazing. After this, I’m heading down the block to see Questlove. He is one of the sickest guys in the game. You think hip-hop drummers, you think Questlove…that’s just it,” said Gonzales. “His vinyl collection must be amazing. First time I saw The Roots play, I feel in love. It was like 100 f-cking degrees outside at Zilker but it still remains one of the best sets I’ve seen at ACL.”

Diego Garcia Returns

NY band Elefant broke up earlier this year, much to my dismay, but looks like spearhead Diego Garcia has decided continue on as a solo artist albeit with a slightly different sound. Check out his new single “You Were Never There,” plus a couple of classic Elefant tunes below.

From The Mind Of Adi: What Next?

From The Mind Of Adi’s First Friday Frolic – September 3rd @ Club de Ville

FTMOA's First Friday Frolic series hosts its ACVB and Double Stereo night on September 3rd at Club de Ville. The Austin Music Office, a division of The Austin Convention & Visitors Bureau, will be celebrating the launch of its new music microsite, powered by Double Stereo. Local bands are encouraged to create a profile and add their music, bio, and merchandise to the site; tourists (and residents) will be able to check out these Austin artists, buy their music, and of course, make plans accordingly to attend a performance. The site will eventually serve as a comprehensive database for Austin acts, and in due time, should be a priceless resource for information on these musicians.

Doors open at 5 p.m. on the 3rd. We’ll have some food from Frank and beverages from Waialua Soda Works waiting for the early-birds. uLOVEi’s reliable selection of music, and live sets from Hard Proof Afrobeat and Bus Stop Stallions comprise the scheduled entertainment for the evening.

Thanks to everyone who came down for kickoff show on August 6th. See you next Friday for the second installment of the series!

A special thanks to the FTMOA event sponsors and supporters -- Austinist, uLOVEi, Giant Noise, KVRX 91.7 FM, Red River Noise and Waialua Soda Works.

From The Mind Of Adi: Glynn Wedgewood’s Firsts

Firsts: Sh*te that happened before other sh*te happened.

Today: Glynn Wedgewood’s Firsts! This time, we examine what inspired Glynn Wedgewood, previously with IV Thieves, and currently spearheading STEREO IS A LIE. Get a taste of the latter’s sizzling rock tunes at the River River on the Rocks extravaganza at The Mohawk this Saturday. The much anticipated debut full-length from STEREO IS A LIE is due later this year.



1st favorite musician or band: Probably Queen as it goes. I say that because Queen's Greatest Hits was constantly in the tape player of the car when I was a kid and I loved hearing every song on that album, especially on those long trips to Blackpool.
