If you’re in the mood to delve into the music of some fine local acts, you will not want to miss SureFire Media + Promotion’s latest event at Antone’s tonight. When we last checked in with them, we learnt of their plans to bring fresh faces to the historic venue on 5th St. Thursday’s bill features four exciting bands primed for their moment of glory in the Live Music Capital. Haunting Oboe Music has been ubiquitous in the past year, playing everywhere, from The Parlor up north to the Do512 Compound down south, and almost every Red River venue in between. The ambitious band plans to drop an EP every month this year; you can read our review for January’s h here and buy it, along with the February, March, and April releases at Waterloo Records or via iTunes. The Fever Dreams’ experimental psychedelic concoctions are intriguing to the say the least, with numerous twists and turns throughout. The outfit’s versatile creations can be found on last year’s Tregan of Polycorns, also available at Waterloo Records, as well as End of an Ear and Cheapo Discs.

Local Music is Sexy alums Visitors provide a delicious buffet of synth-pop nuggets while Sweet Lee Morrow’s poignant psychedelia will also be available. Visitors are currently recording a follow-up to their debut Secrets although vocalist/guitarist Jason Saldana claims “We’re fully aware we’re a 5th or 6th album type of band.”!! The four-piece is working with The Sword bassist and producer Bryan Richie on the upcoming record and have already demo’d five new songs. Expect to hear at least a few of those tonight. Ardent Tripping Daisy fan Jesse “Po-Dunk” Hester (“Sweet Lee Morrow” is inspired, sorta, by Tripping Daisy’s debut album Bill) started the band in Dallas in the 90’s but had to put the effort on hold while he worked with The Polyphonic Spree. Having since left the Spree, relocated to Austin, and recruited two new members (Jared Jackson and Colin Peden), Po-Dunk felt the time was right to renew his pet project. Lucky for us, as the talent inherent in Sweet Lee Morrow, as well as the other three bands should make for a memorable night of live music, all for $3 if you RSVP on Do512. Do it!
