Choir of Young Believers

SXSW has already put out two lists of bands coming in 2012 but it still seems so far away that I can't get going on the previews. I'll start researching later but one band immediately got me excited so I had to share. They came to SXSW in 2010 but there were always conflicts and I never saw them. They were supposed to come last year but for some reason they never made it. They better make it this time. I won't be having conflicts, either. They're from Copenhagen and don't make it over here very often so catch them while you can.

Other Lives (pt. 2)

So by now you know Radiohead is coming to Austin. This is the opening band. I posted a song earlier that you should go hear. Here's another song that I have had on repeat all morning. Incredible album. As if there weren't enough reasons to be excited about that show.

Keep Shelly in Athens

Mini-FFF fest preview here. If we end up going Saturday it may be worth it to get there by 12:45 to see this band. I think they are actually from Greece (unlike Architecture in Helsinki who are from Australia, I think). Very cool sound. Gorilla vs. Bear is hyping them up. This will be their first ever live appearance in the U.S.

Here are three songs to check out:
