Ley Line: “Tous Que Je Vois”

By: Jack Anderson

Known for their multi-lingual lyricism and awe-inspiring acoustic arrangements, Ley Line is one of Austin’s finest folk fusion creators. These disciplined Studio 1A veterans first linked up after an auspicious meeting of duos at the 2013 Telluride Bluegrass Festival, and before long they had earned their keep as our October 2019 Artist of the Month.

This folk-fusion four-piece just announced their upcoming album We Saw Blue with the premiere of Ley Line’s debut French-language original. “Tous Que Je Vois” will fit right in on We Saw Blue‘s second stripped down side and while you’ll have to wait ’til December 4th to explore the record’s percussion-heavy opening half, this new single will keep you humming through the weekend.

Wes Denzel: “Juice”

The last time we checked-in with Wes Denzel, he was re-releasing his 2023 H-Town love letter Last Night In Houston. And during that time, he was already working on his next record. The San Antonio-based rapper, songwriter, and self-taught producer has spent the last couple of years working on Sorry About Last Night, a five-song […]

CLUB: “Sunshine”

Austin’s CLUB COMA are electrifying. Ebbing between dark electro -pop, high-octane rock, and a little bit of funk (sometimes all in the same song), the trio brings the party to the stage. And when you know the members come from Austin groups Ume, Boyfrndz, and Stiletto Feels, your eyes unfocus just enough to see the […]

Redbud: “Pink Pear”

Redbud started as a passion (and let’s be real, therapy) project for Katie Claghorn during the pandemic. Following the release of the group’s debut EP Long Night in 2023, Redbud has been blossoming. At this point, it’s becoming increasingly harder to find people who haven’t heard of Redbud. The group returns with their follow-up album […]

Magic City Hippies: “Little Bit of Love” (ft. Antwaun Stanley)

When you go through a break-up the traditional thing to do is to pull in, find solace in your platonic relationships, and try new things. Very new things. Like, perhaps, uprooting yourself clear across the country to make your next album. Magic City Hippies follow tradition with their new album Enemies. In the three years […]

J’cuuzi: “How 2 Get Everything You’ve Always Wanted 4 Free (Forever)”[PREMIERE]

Austin’s J’cuuzi are about as avantgarde as you can get. Or as I like to call them pop-vantgarde. They’re too electronic to be post-punk, too post-punk to be considered electronic, and a hair too melodic to be straight noise rock. But it’s hot, wild, and maybe a little dangerous, like a jacuzzi. Their live shows […]

Brittany Banowsky: “Two Sunglass Town” (Song Confessional)

If you’ve been paying attention to KUTX the last few years, you’re aware that we have a number of podcasts. One of them is Song Confessional, an effort led by Walker Lukens and Zac Catanzaro where they collect anonymous, wild stories or “confessions” from people then have a musician write a song about the confession. […]

Pink Must: “Morphe Sun”

When a project is born from a mutual love of PJ Harvey, you know I’m all in. Pink Must began with this love shared from half a country away, but once Mari Maurice Rubio and Lynn Avery, better known as More Eaze and Iceblink respectively, were both located in Brooklyn, it was game on. As […]

Illiterate Light: “Payphone”

The Ohio duo Illiterate Light  have been making music together for a decade: starting from humble pastoral beginnings making music while working on a farm in the Shenandoah Valle, to their latest album Arches, which saw the band splitting time between Ohio and Hollywood’s Sunset Sound, a room formerly graced by Bob Dylan and Paul […]
