The Record Summer, Beale Street Tavern, Austin, 16 March 2012, SXSW 2012

Guitar pop, with programmed keyboards, giving a light, sunny and airy sound. The mid-set quiet song, 'Can't get you out of my mind', was lovely and created quite moment in the bar. Another quiet song, 'Put you out.' was pretty and sounded like it would fit well on a film soundtrack. The band if we were ready to rock before playing 'Television in America', then just finished, so they may need to work on their stagecraft a bit, as everyone looked a bit surprised that they'd not done the standard 'We are... Thank you... This is going to be our last song.'
