Matt Ashworth – OK, yeah. We get it. You’re mad that you’re favorite band isn’t on this list. We’re sure they deserve it. In fact, we acknowledge that the very existence of this list implies omissions; there are a lot of great bands in Seattle.
PT – Picked by the British music press as a band to watch, and tirelessly championed by Spoon’s Britt Daniels –who picked them as openers for a two-week tour in late 2014– beloved East Austin riot-starters A Giant Dog is poised to finally break its chain in 2015, run amok and lick the rest of the country’s face with the release of their third album.
P.T. Stinson – Somewhere between AmRep and SST Records, somewhere between The Minutemen and the Kinks, Austin’s Borzoi are a postpunk two-by-four made of Faberge eggs upside your head –you’re not sure what hit you, but you’re impressed with the level of detail.
PT Stinson – South by Southwest is the time of year when local Austin acts are rendered anonymous by the festival turned global brand, to mostly paraphrase a recent social media musing by Sabrina Ellis, frontwoman of A Giant Dog and Sweet Spirit –two of six of the very best bands in Austin who will one day come to your town and make you wonder what’s in the water here.
