The Octopus Project Live @ Little Radio Warehouse (5/1/06)

Austin's The Octopus Project's sound walks a very nice path between noise and beauty. Yvonne's theramin work is memorizing and Josh and Toto's energy is exhausting. The Octopus Project have been named one of Rolling Stone's five stand out artists and have been nominated and/or win the Austin Music Awards in numerous categories the last few years.

Following a very long Coachella weekend where we took over Frank Sinatra's old house in Palm Springs with Anthem Magazine, they stopped in for a Monday night show. OP had played Coachella over the weekend after one of their fans entered them into a contest to play the festival. Best of all, they didn't even know about the contest till they won. They are great people and very unique musicians.

I'll work on the set list shortly. Right-Click Song Name to Download.
