Grocery Bag: “Stop Calling Me Out”

Austin garage-punk darlings Grocery Bag are back baby! Ahead of their shows as official SXSW 2026 artists, today they release “Stop Calling Me Out,” a song that hits you in the face with the group’s signature garage-psych brashness, but this time a little more melody has been added to the cauldron, one slightly reminiscent of […]

Magna Carda: “Digging You More”

Austin’s Magna Carda’s new single “Digging you more” has a smooth, intentional ease — blending soulful R&B textures with hip-hop in a way that feels intimate without being overstated. There’s a warm, atmospheric quality to the production that creates space rather than filling it. Ahead of their upcoming album ininnoutcheamind, out March 10th, Magna Carda […]

Ahead of the release of their upcoming album TOMGIRL, Quentin has released the music video for the gut-spilling “Hello Denial,” an anthemic art pop tune, smooth, groovy, and a little sultry before being punctuated with slightly fuzzed-out guitar chords, fueled by […]

Grandmaster: “Feel It Coming” [Live In Studio 1A]

Descending from the Galacian Web once again to spoil us with their presence and intergalactic teachings is Austin’s Grandmaster, and I think if we put Golden Dawn Arkestra and Grandmaster in a room together, we’d almost have an OG episode of Star Trek. Funk energy with a vintage flair is the group’s MO, and their […]

The Takeoff: “Life is a Rumor”

As a trio, they deliver explosive guitar work layered over commanding, high-impact vocals, creating a sound that feels both […]
