Austinist Giveaway: Tickets to See the Lovely Feathers and Evangelicals at Emo's, Tuesday

Wonderfully effusive post-punk-'n-pop band The Lovely Feathers hail from Montreal, and this crew is nothing if not motley. The five-some consists of: a classically-trained concert pianist, a former hardcore grunge drummer, a scholarship-winning college hockey player with a rumored criminal record in New Hampshire, a med school dropout, and a self-described Ancient Greek Hermeneutician. Their debut album, Hind Hind Legs, was produced by the guys behind Stars, Broken Social Scene, and Metric -- they toured late last year, in fact, with the latter band, though we're sorry to say that we missed their opening set.

Lucky for us (and you), they're coming back next Tuesday for a show at Emo's with Man Man and Evangelicals (whose new album, So Gone, we reviewed earlier this week). We've got a special prize package that includes a copy of Hind Hind Legs and a pair of spots on the guestlist for the show for one of our lucky readers. Fill out the form below, and stay tuned for our interview with the band, which we'll bring you next week.

Congrats, Rabia!

The Lovely Feathers are great reason to stop by Emo's - another song worth mentioning from Hind, Hind Legs has to be Breakfast Cake, but the entire album itself is great stuff...

I don't mean to comment twice, but I found this during my blog run and thought it was fitting...
