Normally, this webpage is where we post the show we do, called SomaCow. It's talk, commercial free, and pretty funny, unless you are not funny, in which case it can be quite serious. But when we are NOT entertaining you with our voices, I am here, yammering about my health and answering the question - Do You Want To Die? I've never suffered from overconfidence. Sometimes, people hear my voice for the first time, and they think, "What arrogance! What cocksuredness! What a strange tendency to go all high pitched when excited!" But I [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , New Music , Exclusive When Black Rebel Motorcycle Club drop their fifth studio album, 'Beat the Devil's Tattoo,' on March 9, 2010, it will be their first with new drummer Leah Shapiro.

For the remainder of the weekend, sBach joins the [...]
A three act bill last Friday night at Johnny Brenda's. First up was JJL, a stripped down band consisting of members from Philadelphia act Like A Fox. There sound can be described as if Neil Young started using a sampler. Nice, folksy & fun. Next act was another side project band, Sunshine Recorder. Rocking psychedelic sounds [...]

It's like Christmas in August. If you've attended conferences for work before, surely we've all collected the same array of doodads and logo-covered items over the years. But I've never experienced quite the excitement that I get tucked inside a nondescript canvas bag at the registration table for the Boulder music summit. Instead of letter openers and stress balls, I find enough sampler CDs and random little EPs to sate me for quite a while (even a Modest Mouse 7"! Yeehaw). Many of these artists are buzz bands that I keep hearing about, and going through [...]

Today is my birthday! To celebrate my 24th year on this planet, and my first within the snazzy confines of Austin, I have decided to roll out a nice little EP. The mix has some great, albeit non-birthday related, stuff that I would have liked to of rambled about last week but couldn't because of the move. In other words, it's a belated celebration elaboration dipped in enthusiasm especially for myself. Enjoy.
