SXSWfm: Indie/Pop/Rock (The Sads) – Nov 10

The Middle Biscuit is a weekly SXSWfm specialty radio show stream, hosted by Elizabeth Spruiell on MixCloud, which focuses on indie/pop/rock music gems (about an hour long).

SXSWfm_biggerSXSWfm is the official internet radio stream of the South by Southwest (SXSW) Music Festival which celebrated its 30th anniversary in Austin, Texas from March 15-20, 2016. This is a great way to discover new music.

This is how Elizabeth describes her weekly show every Thursday at 12 & 6 CT.

What is the Middle Biscuit? Literally speaking, it is the warm, highly-coveted, center, perfect biscuit my brothers and I fought over when our Mom set down a pan of her homemade fare. Figuratively, the middle biscuit is a symbol representing any thing that is elite compared to those that surround it. Tune in weekly to feast on what I consider middle biscuit tracks and middle biscuit artists from the massive universe of indie-pop-rock. Mostly new stuff, sometimes classic, either way, you’ll get your fill.

The Head and the Heart @ Stubb’s Austin

The Head and the Heart @ Stubb’s Austin

I attended a concert by The Head and the Heart at the Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheater on October 28, 2016 in Austin, Texas, with British singer/songwriter Declan McKenna opening. These are some videos from the evening that you might enjoy.

Videos

All We Ever Knew on Signs of Light (2016) – 4 min 7 sec

Let’s Be Still on Let’s Be Still (2013) – 6 min 11 sec

Down in the Valley on The Head and the Heart (2010) – 3 min 22 sec

Sounds Like Hallelujah on The Head and the Heart (2010) – 3 min 3 sec

Cats and Dogs on The Head and the Heart (2010) – 6 min 49 sec

I took additional short clips as well but my iPhone kept running out of space (most were probably less than a minute). Then I would frantically try to delete some apps to clear some room, but this would repeat on quite a few more songs. So I felt they were all too short to share and didn’t include them.

If you want to listen to more music from The Head and the Heart, see my post with playlist, albums, videos, and links.
