Giveaway: A White Christmas with White Denim

What do you get when you mix together Austin’s next big band, next sizzling DJ and next hot boutique? Tonight’s wicked Christmas party unwittingly plucked from Andy Langer’s dreams. Join Strut Boutique and Car Stereo (Wars) for Mohawk merriment with White Denim, the Corto Maltese and the Carrots.

Headliner White Denim is a guaranteed party in a box. But don’t expect this gift to be neatly wrapped with a bow. Their free-range, high-volume dance rock makes you sweat just listening to it. We suggest you leave your parka at home.

Named after an Italian graphic novel character, the Corto Maltese has an adventurous sound worthy of the “rogue with a heart of gold.” The indie rockers are inevitably compared to Arcade Fire, Ben Maddox’s vocals are spot-on Win Butler, but they forgo the bevy of eccentric instruments in favor of a grungier guitar base.

The Carrots will kick off the night with snappy melodies, tight harmonies and the magic of matching outfits. Remember, the early bird gets the eggnog. (We highly doubt there will be eggnog, dairy-based rum concoctions don’t mix well with raucous choreography.)
