Last Minute Gig: Peter (Minus Bjorn + John) At Ruta Maya Tonight
Some fun and last-minute news from Twitter: the Swedish trio Peter, Bjorn, and John have arrived in Austin early in advance of their Gimme Some tour dates that begin tomorrow evening at a sold-out Antone's. In addition to eating at Juan In A Million and hanging out at country bars, the band's Peter Moren has decided to play an informal gig tonight at Ruta Maya Coffeehouse on South Congress. Tickets are just $5 and are available at Ticketfly. Austin singer Arum Rae Valkonen will open the show.
Moren may well play some PB&J hits during his show tonight, but may also focus on his two solo albums: the latest, I spåren av tåren, was done completely in Swedish, while the first, The Last Tycoon, was an English-language singer-songwriter record Moren promoted extensively at SXSW 2008.
