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!

Tonight: East Cameron Folkcore at Hole in the Wall
Some things just go incredibly well together: chips and queso, whiskey and Coke, rhythm and blues. Along those lines, I advise you at some point in your Austinite life to experience the band East Cameron Folkcore and the venue Hole in the Wall together. Tonight is a good opportunity to make it happen, as the Folkcore recently returned from a national tour and is playing their homecoming show at the storied venue.
I filmed this nine-piece folk/punk mini-orchestra at Mohawk during Free Week and I can't wait to show you the finished product at Red River Noise. In the meantime, a friend of the band named Pin-Bo Tsai got some footage of his own from that show. Check it out below.
