The official Gorilla vs. Bear x SXSW 2018 showcase goes down on Friday night, March 16th, at Seven Grand in downtown Austin. Featuring the best official SXSW showcase lineup I've ever seen in my life, starring: Hinds, Faye Webster, Men I Trust, Helena Deland, Sun June, Hater, and Forever...

TX group Loma shares another hypnotic highlight from their beautiful self-titled debut LP, out next month. "Joy", which features a clarinet solo from the group's Emily Cross, is the first song the trio wrote together, and it's a devastating, widescreen reflection on "the giddy experience of falling in love, especially against one's better judgment"...

We're psyched to be presenting a rare TX run by the incomparable John Maus next month, including a stop at Club Dada in Dallas on Friday, February 2nd, then at Barracuda down in Austin the next night. We're giving away a couple pairs of tickets for each date; to enter, just tag a homie on our instagram post and we'll pick the winners the week of the show...

Loma is the new collaborative project from the incredible Dripping Springs, TX band Cross Record + Shearwater's Jonathan Meiburg, and today the group graces us with some beautifully mystical vibes in the form of the devastating, ASMR-inducing first single from their forthcoming album, with a powerful and haunting accompanying video from director Andrew McGlennon...
