Waters, Studio by HGTV, 16 March 2012, SXSW 2012

The first couple of tracks were hard to get a handle on, then the band asked people to come nearer the stage to give a more intimate feel and the next track after that really took off. The singer said they'd played nine shows already and had just one left after this one. They also thanked us for coming 'I know you have a thousand other options. It's cool.' 'Take me out to the coast' would be good on a summer compilation CD and the song before it was good too. The last song sounded a bit like Nirvana covering a lost southern soul classic and really fun.
