Photo by Angel Ceballos Drink Up Buttercup Two weeks ago, we heard the murmurs about the Philly rock quartet Drink Up Buttercup possibly breaking up. Were the band members calling it quits? Were they changing the band's name (and/or sound)? Nobody seemed to have any actual answers, so we took the initiative and, you know, called the band to find out what was going on . Lead singer Jim Harvey told us that the band had decided to perform its last show under the Drink Up Buttercup name [...]

Photo by Angel Ceballos Sometimes, growing pains for bands can be really painful—especially when they involve three of the four members choosing to move in a new direction, leaving the fourth behind. "Honestly, it was harder than breaking up with a girlfriend," said Jim Harvey, lead singer of Philly's Drink Up Buttercup , who confirmed today that the band will be performing its last show under that name at The Fire on Saturday night (as part of the Sundrop Arts And Music Festival). Harvey, Farzad [...]

Below is the gluttonous and rather grotesque official music video for "Seasickness Pills" from Drink Up Buttercup . WTF!?! - The Deli Staff

Whether you just think the British version is better than the American version or you are conflicted because it kind of feels like softcore kiddie porn and is way to racy for your taste, tonight you have a reason to tune into "Skins" to show some local love and put your gripes aside because Drink Up Buttercup 's "Sosey and Dosey" will be making an appearance in the controversial MTV series. You can check out the new episode tonight at 10pm, and send the DUB dudes a message to let them know how it went because they don't get [...]

Una de las cosas me han gustado más de Travis a lo largo de los años han sido sus videos, pues no importa qué tan alegre o triste sea la canción, la banda escocesa siempre se las arregla para mantener el humor y la buena vibra en sus producciones visuales. Afortunadamente su vocalista, Fran Healy , ha decidido continuar en la misma línea para promocionar el primer sencillo de su primera producción solista, "Buttercups" , una canción que en un principio no me convenció mucho, pues como ya dije cuando presentamos el [...]
Fran Healy debuted the new video for the first single from his solo album, Wreckorder, today on Yahoo. The single is entitled 'Buttercup' and features a quintessentially adorable Healy riding through New York City with a series of girls from his past. We can't say how true the girls are to Franny's real life but [...]

Ya desde principios de año les habíamos contado las primeras noticias de Wreckorder , el proyecto solista de Fran Healy de Travis , quien, aprovechando un descanso del grupo, decidió que era momento de abandonar momentáneamente a sus compañeros para producir algo por él mismo. Pues ahora ya tenemos más detalles de esta producción, la cual será publicada a través de Ryko el próximo 5 de octubre y fue grabada en Berlín, Nueva York y Vermont durante el último año. En nuestra nota anterior les [...]

Friday is so insanely busy in the music world in Austin that we just had to dedicate an entire post to the goings on. Here's a quick rundown of what's happening at each venue: Waterloo Records : Langhorne Slim free @ 5pm with free keg beer! Mohawk : Pains of Being Pure at Heart , Depreciation Guild , and Cymbals Eat Guitars @ 8pm. Tickets are $10 . Emos(inside) : [...]

Austin's most unique non-profit, The Yellow Bike Project , are celebrating 12 great years of existence by putting on a party/show at Red 7 on Thursday night. The lineup is stacked with talent and includes ATH faves Shearwater headlining along with Theatre Fire , Red Cortez , Buttercup , and the Yellow Bike Project Gospel Choir. Shearwater don't have any other Austin dates planned for the summer so you better see them while you can! Show starts at 8pm. Download: Shearwater - The Snow Leopard [MP3]

So, speaking of Sons of Hermann Hall: Tomorrow night at the much-beloved Deep Ellum venue , audiences can take in two of the best (and most beautifully understated) pop-rock acts the city has to offer as Salim Nourallah & The Noise and I Love Math will be sharing the bill (alongside similarly top-notch pop rockers Buttercup from San Antonio). And, as a special treat, Nourallah's gonna be filming his set with The Noise for a live DVD package. The DVD's release will coincide with the upcoming release of Nourallah's new [...]
(Day 2 begins here.) DAY 2 (continued) The talk with Ken Bethea took awhile so the guys went on without me. (I don't know how anyone survived before without texting capabilities at these things, it is essential.) As I mentioned before, sleep and food are kind of as-you-go at this thing, but I decided to take full advantage of a sushi bar that was near the 8 pm venue. I was still trying to

Sorry for getting this out late, but I have been recovering from the weekend known as ACL Fest. It looks like the fun doesn't stop there either. The summer heat is leaving central Texas slowly and more and more bands are heading to the venues to entertain us. So let's get to it! Thursday begins with The French Kicks and Little Ones at Emo's . Playing up the street a few blocks at Stubb's is cancer survivor and musician with a message Christine Baze and [...]
The calendar turns to September this weekend, which means only two weeks until the Festival! The big names are getting ready to filter through central Texas. Until then, let's see who will be in the ATX this week. As Joe said in his post, the dinosaurs are out this week. I am not a huge fan of punk and hardcore bands, but two of the most well known and influential ones are playing together
