Pay close attention the kicks modeled about just seconds into Los Lonely Boys' SoCo-shot “Fly Away.” That's the signature shoe collection the Garza brothers launched for Stacy Adams, with 10 percent of the proceeds benefiting Padres Contra El Cancer. Get a closer at Stubb's on Saturday, along with Willie's son, Lukas Nelson & the Promise of the Real.
Los Lonely Boys “Fly Away”
Matt the Electrician “All I Know”
The local pop tunesmith has a new album, Accidental Thief, due June 14. For the summery lead single, Matt Sever and his Kathie created this stop-motion video with cut-out animation, a timely ode to family summer vacations.
Pure X “You’re In It Now”
The b-side to Pure X’s re-released debut EP of the same name, “You’re In It Now” captures the nocturnal allure of the band’s hazy, ambient-pop. You can almost see the local trio – Nate Grace, Jesse Jenkins, and Austin Youngblood – through the fog and oil-lamp effects in this Scott Gelber-directed video. Pure X’s first proper full-length, Pressure, arrives July 5, via Acephale.
Fresh Millions “Hot New Jam From ‘73”
Our friends over at Austin Music Weekly this aptly titled jam from the local geek squad, Fresh Millions, getting down at the Beauty Bar back in October. The full audio’s available here.
