Wow, hey, you kids! ST 37, Hearts of Animals, and the Ex-Optimists all invade Bryan TX this Friday night Feb. 2! To wit:
Poster 2-1-18

So come on out and hang out with us! OK? We’re super excited to be playing with these guys. Hearts of Animals contain two members of the Linus Pauling Quartet, and the LP the Ex-Optimists traded with me for (“Phantom Freight”) is absolutely shit-hot, as well as being a lovely physical object that looks like something out of a Bladerunner film.

See you there!

cheers –

—Please RSVP if you’re on FB. If not – this is an EARLY SHOW! Woo-hoo! Doors at 7, show at 8. Garrett T. Capps’ NASA Country plays first at 8, we play 2nd at 9. Cover is $10 but that includes free adult beverages, so it’s really pretty durn cheap. We hear that Period Modern is a pretty cool artsy venue that has shows along with selling modern art and furniture. Our pal Thor played there awhile back with his Thor & Friends project and the videos looked great. We hope to see you out and about!

     We hope to see you out and about at one or more of these fabulous events. Not only will this give us a chance to rehearse a bit and try out some new material, but we will also be working on some old chestnuts from the back catalog that we have not played live in many years (“I Love to Talk, if There’s Anything to Talk About” we’re looking at YOU!). Another really cool aspect of these shows is that several brand new acts featuring long-term friends and collaborators of ours will be premiering at the event. It starts with night 1 and the first show of Local Shadows, a brand new supergroup starring John Wilkins and Justin Bankston of Winslow and American Vodka fame, hooking up with James Alexander (Cinders, My Education) and Mark Nathan of the Heartless Bastards. On night two, we’ll have one of the first shows from Giuseppe Antonio Volpi’s (Primordial Undermind, Evil Triplet) new project Pyrethrum, as well as an appearance from Dave Norwood of the Gary’s new surf project the Spoils. Night 4 brings the debut of Mirrors, a new band from our old pal Steve Landry (Meat Truck, Girl Robots, Bahrain, etc.). This is gonna be a great time all round, and not only is it FREEEE but the Carousel closes at midnight, so you can get to bed at a reasonable hour and be up for work Friday. ANNNND…the Carousel is BYOB with beer, wine and setups for sale, so you can bring a jug of yer favorite hooch and save $$ on drinks.

Pecan St. Festival 2017

Posted on by st37blog
Hey you guys!
   Just a quick note to let you know we’re playing the Pecan Street Festival here in Austin this coming Sunday, 9/24. We’ve played this unique, FREE festival before, but we’ve gotta tell you, never before have we played on a Pecan St. Fest lineup as cool as this one. On the Red River Stage on Sunday afternoon, check out this schedule:
12 noon:  Cinders
1.10pm:  Abigail und Hansel
2.20 pm: ST 37
3.45 pm:  Baby Robots
4.55 pm: Golden Boys
6.10 pm:  Kay Odyssey
     The connections in this lineup are myriad! Cinders contains Kirk Laktas and James Alexander of My Education, which also contains Scott Telles of ST 37. Abigail und Hansel contains Joel Crutcher and Bob Bechtol of ST 37. Baby Robots contains Bobby Baker of ST 37, Chris Hackstie of My Education, and Chris Laurel, who drummed on the last My Education tour. ST 37 is now on Super Secret/Self Sabotage records, which is also the home of John Wesley Coleman III, the front man of Golden Boys. Virginia Meza, drummer of Kay Odyssey, used to play drums for Lisa Cameron of ST 37’s old band the Devil Bat. In sum, this lineup is total ST 37 fam, and it’s gonna rock all day long! We’ve attached the poster below for your convenience. We hope to see you there.
     In other news, we’ve finished mixing the new double LP and are entering the mastering stage in October.
cheers
