Rock Bottom String Band not only entertains, they inform. Recently, they stopped by KTSW 89.9‘s Studio C Sessions to perform La Llorona, a song dedicated to the lore of the ‘Weeping Ghost’ (or ‘Weeping Woman’). I would go into more detail about the story, but Tara does it much better than I can. If you’re not already hip to Studio C Sessions, you should definitely follow the YouTube channel for constant nonstop good tunes.

Evolution is a natural part of dedicated creation. Take Conwaythewhale, for example. Upon their inception, the band was just a duo, albeit a powerful one. Due to life circumstances and other creative obligations, what started as a raw musical confessional turned into a full-fledged power packed sonic testimonial, backed by a traditional full band. What has not changed, however, is the cutting honesty and pure emotion of singer/songwriter Justin Conway. The band stopped by KTSW 89.9‘s acclaimed Studio C Sessions recently, and their performance of John Locke was extremely touching, especially for those of us that have spent any time over the last 5 years or so in the San Marcos area.

In the information age, everything happens at an accelerated pace. The process of forming a band, writing a catalog of songs and developing a rapport and chemistry with one another used to take years, but those days are over. Take The PNTHN, based out of San Marcos, Texas. In what seems like a matter of months, they’ve dropped a couple of projects, a handful of music videos, have played shows throughout Texas, and recently stopped by KTSW for a Studio C Session. Check it out, give it a like and a share, and definitely support these cats because they’ll be doing bigger things sooner than later.

I recently took part in an interview with Matt Alvarez of KTSW NEWS (89.9, San Marcos). The interview focused on the underexposed aspects of DJ culture, and it also included music by yours truly. I found it interesting, so feel free to listen and judge for yourselves…
