It’s dark, and apparently from a hidden camera, but some footage from the Permanent Record CD Release party has found it’s way to the light. Dig it and dig it good.

While combing through the eternal noise of Facebook, I noticed a link posted by my main man King Art. The sounds were very nice, so I figured I’d share it with you. Enjoy.

from the digital desk of Swamp Pocket:
“TAYLOR & CAMERON (aka – “T-Cam”) are childhood best friends from San Antonio… MARTY & ISHAQ (aka – “the twin towers”) both migrated South from the Dallas area after high school, ended up college roommates & best musical buds going on almost 20 years now… All four first convened in San Marcos in the 90s, born out of the same creative scene. In smaller pockets, this tribe of distinguished performers have certainly found ways to play together in many different forms over the years – BUT NEVER LIKE THIS, never these 4 particular dudes. Never did they dare cross their powerful streams at the exact same moment, for fear of how eardrums around the world would react to sounds as PERFECTLY KISMET as this… But the time has finally come! Now all four are grown-up, (pseudo)responsible married men; no longer wet-behind-the-ears, yet HUNGRIER THAN EVER BEFORE! Members of the Swamp Pocket constantly crave new funky auditory gems, tunes that no one else can create but them. Come listen in & join the adventure won’t you?”

After a long while of playing shows and recording, Austin-based band Rooster Jenkins have finally released their debut full-length. Booze and Bad Decisions is an album about how “Decision making is rough when you’re twenty-something and you drink whiskey”. Grab yourself a copy, enjoy, and don’t forget to spread the word!

From Wisconsin to Austin, Park N Murray have worked hard to make a name for themselves. 2013 marks the release of their first full length studio effort. The skill shows throughout “Mixed Feelings”. Give it a listen, give it a share, and maybe even throw a five spot their way if you’re able.

Here’s a new mix from my old friend Bird Peterson. It’s full of music from his label mates, and it works well with dancing shoes.

This past weekend at Foodstock/MR Fest, I had the pleasure of being introduced to a small handful of new bands. One of the performers that stood out was soloist Les Rav. I recently found out she has an IndieGoGo campaign in order to raise funds for recording her first album. Take a moment to watch, share the video, and donate if you can.
