We’ve written before about how industrious the members of Austin’s The Sour Notes are. To commence their upcoming national tour, the group has amassed a phenomenal bill of artists, including Royal Forest and The Midgetmen, for a show that will take place on Saturday July 21st at Red 7 and feature both the indoor and outdoor stages. In addition to the 14 awesome bands, a photobooth sponsored by Bird’s Barbershop will be on premises for all your photo fun needs and is sponsored by a slew of reputable folks including Sonic Vault, Vitamin Water, Austin Town Hall, and Pop Press International.
For anyone who hasn’t heard, virtually everyone who witnesses a Sour Notes show are immediate converts. The band plays unapologetically blistering indie rock with nods to 50s pop and interludes of excellent guitar solos. It’s a must see show. Below are the set times for the event, but c’mon Austin, you know these things are flexible. Do the right thing: show up early, stay late, and have your face rocked by some of Austin’s finest musical talent. Below the set times are a stream for the Sour Notes, the event poster for the show, and the band’s tour dates. For our out of town friends, catch this band where you are!
