Welcome to 'NITES
'NITES was an Austin-based blog that covered the local music scene in Central Texas. I started this blog because I love live music and I think Austin is the best city in the world to discover talented new bands. I ran this blog with passion and enthusiasm for a few years, before growing apart from the scene I'd once lived and breathed. This blog spent a year in limbo before I made the final decision to shutter it. The blog's previous posts will remain live, but there will be no future updates. Thanks for your years of readership and feedback. It was fun while it lasted, but times change. People change. Scenes change. Change isn't something to fear, but rather something to embrace. Peace, love and rock 'n' roll, y'all. Feel free to dig through the archives for photos, videos and writeups about Austin music from 2008 to 2010. If you use my work anywhere, please give me credit. Thanks!

Photos: The Boxing Lesson at Emo's
I went to Emo's recently to catch The Boxing Lesson, a spacey/dancey indie band that I hadn't seen play in ages. They added a new drummer, wrote a bunch of new songs and recorded a new album since I last saw them play. The band, known for its covers of Jefferson Airplane and Devendra Banhart songs, has also learned a new cover: "House of the Rising Sun." You can watch that video here. Their next show is at Mohawk on May 18 opening for Montreal's The Besnard Lakes.
