Ringo Deathstarr are performing on Thursday, July 7th, 2011 at The 529.



"Ringo Deathstarr were originally formed in 2005 by singer and guitarist Elliott Frazier in his hometown of Beaumont, TX, but after moving to the more musically happening climes of Austin, he stabilized a final lineup with guitarist Renan McFarland, bassist Alex Gehring, and drummer Dustin Gaudet. Ringo Deathstarr's self-titled debut, a five-song EP, was released by the British label SVC Records in the fall of 2007. After a few more years of playing shows, shuffling members before settling on Gehring and drummer Daniel Coborn, and honing their sound, the band was signed by the U.K. label AC30 after making a big splash at their Reverence festival in 2010. The band's first album, Colour Trip, was released by AC30 in the winter of 2010, then was licensed by Sonic Unyon for release in Canada." - Stewart Mason / All Music

This Piano Plays Itself will be performing first.



"The Georgian quartet have a guitar-driven shoegaze sound that reminds me of Explosions In The Sky or Slint, with billowing movements and more layers than Trident’s latest marketing gimmick. I’m not sure if you’ve got a set of superb speakers or rock out your tunes on ear buds, but “Who We Were” jams out like something epic on a stellar set of headphones. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to experience This Piano Plays Itself in person soon." I Guess I'm Floating
