Household Names have delivered some mighty fine pop tunes via two stellar full-lengths and a 4-song EP since forming in Austin nearly a decade ago. KUT 90.5 FM’s Austin Music Minute highlighted the band in March during their SXSW 2008 edition, and beyond Austin, the Household Names have garnered much national attention over the years. Their 2002 debut record The Trouble With Being Nice reached #67 on CMJ’s Radio 200 Chart and was featured on Hewlett-Packard's Experience Music Project mobile tour in 2002. Household Names’ expert power-pop sensibility and their penchant for delivering catchy riffs and melodious hooks also grabbed the attention of MTV -- “Bright Spot” off the record was made available for download on MTV.com in the past.

Austin locals the Invincible Czars must bid adieu to their drummer of four years, Tommy Holton. Holton gives it one last go this Saturday for the band's show at Jovita's. Although he's making his official exit, recording for the band's forthcoming album, Fortissimo, had already been completed, meaning he'll live on at least in that.
