Sour Notes Kick Off Tour Tomorrow With Epic Show at Red 7

We told you already about the epic show that will take place at Red 7 tomorrow to celebrate the commencement of Austin favorites the Sour Notes’ national tour. But we couldn’t resist telling you a little more about it and posting some listening material to get you as pumped for the show as we are.

The Sour Notes are one of Austin’s most vital bands, and they’re fresh off of a trip to Canada to play an exclusive date at the NXNE festival. Their tour kickoff show will include 14 of Austin’s best bands, hand selected by the good folks who front the Sour Notes and No Play Music. The full lineup is listed below, along with some mp3s and videos for most of the participants. If you don’t have particular artist you want to check out, you can head over to YouTube to see a specially created playlist of all of the bands, put together by the awesome folks behind Sonic Vault. Playlist here.

You can tell us that you’re going by joining the event page here. For our out of town friends, you can scroll all the way to the bottom for The Sour Notes’ full list of tour dates to see if your town is lucky enough to be hosting them.

The event will be sponsored by Vitamin Water, and Bird’s Barbershop who will host a photobooth, as well as a litany of music publications including Chrontourage, Austin Town Hall, Side One Track One, From the Mind of Adi, Covert Curiosity, Sonic Vault Austin, and Pop Press International. It’s definitely going to be a good one.
