Teddy Glass: “Carrion” [PREMIERE]

By: Jack Anderson

If local music lovers don’t already know what Teddy Glass is all about, that’ll be transparent by the end of the week.

Chief songwriter Peter Shults felt an extra special connection to his fellow Hello Wheels member Josh Halpern, who joined the group as a drummer and added an extra level of dynamics to Shults’ compositions. After that, it was only a matter of time until the musical chemistry between Shults and Halpern tempered itself into the psych-soul-fuzz duo that is Teddy Glass.

This palatable pair has been busy lately! Teddy Glass enjoyed a brief tour before returning for a boat-afloat album release party this past Sunday. They joined us in Studio 1A on Monday and just yesterday Teddy Glass continued their series of of single premieres on Billboard before a live set at Cheer Up Charlie’s. It’s all culminating in the release of their debut eight-track album Nights and Weekends, due out tomorrow. We couldn’t help but hop on the KUTX-clusive opportunity to break Teddy Glass’s last single before Nights and Weekends comes out, so kick back to the premiere of “Carrion”!

Dorio: “Plastic Heart” [Live In Studio 1A]

There’s something about every song by Austin’s Dorio that’s just sweet, sticky, and timeless. It simultaneously takes me to a certain sunny side of the 90’s; my old, cozy, West Campus apartment; and some of the best new music I’ve been listening to all year. It’s also something none of us around here can stop listening […]

Maria Taylor: “Never Thought I’d Feel New”

The feeling of being perpetually confined by your own thoughts is ugly and burdensome. When we root for ourselves and finally find ourselves on the other side of the chrysalis, life is colorful once again, and the feeling of mentally reentering and contributing to the world in a meaningful way is unparalled. This sentiment echoes […]

Cure for Paranoia: [Live At Scholz Garten]

The story behind Dallas hip-hop trio Cure for Paranoia is a tender one. Born during a “doomsday roadtrip” following a mental health diagnosis by frontman Cameron McCloud that later found more fuel following the death of McCloud’s mother, grief has been turned into motivation, one McCloud used to rap every day and put it on […]

Deer Fellow: “Fool For You”

Sonic ingenuity with ruffles imbued with love is the thesis of Austin indie duo Deer Fellow. Blending sonic loops and synth-sibilities with violin intimacy, they set a romantic mood that can’t help but creep in from the background. Newly married, Matt Salois and Alyssa Kelly are well into their season of love, beautifully illustrated through […]
