Austin’s The Bright Light Social Hour release a brand new video for the track “Call My Name” today at The Cosmic Clash. The song is from their latest release, Emergency Leisure which dropped August 2, 2023. The band soon followed with their most ambitious tour in five years, playing dates across North America from September of last year through May of this year. The 36 city tour took the band as far north as Canada and across the United States. This exceptional act has put in a ton of miles, making new fans and bringing old ones back into the fold with a stellar new record and a long overdue extended tour. The new video highlights a track that stood out when the album dropped last year so it makes sense the band would make a corresponding video.

Being Dead is an Austin band, but to say they’re simply a local indie rock band would be selling them short. When songwriting duo Falcon Bitch and Gumball plug in to play, their voices go together immaculately. With the songwriting chops and dynamic chemistry displayed on every song the band has ever recorded, “Muriel’s Big Day Off” revitalizes and hones what makes Being Dead something to watch in 2023.

Video Premiere: The Sour Notes take it DIY with Peak

What we love about Austin’s The Sour Notes is how quirky the band is. Their off-kilter approach is in reality a reflection of the band’s founder, Jared Boulanger who writes and composes all of the group’s material. In a larger sense, the band’s DIY approach is reflected in this clip for their song “Peak”.
