The Monday after ACL isn't exactly the best time to gather a crowd for yet another show, but Two Gallants defied the odds with a crowd of dedicated super-fans gathering for a sold-out show (inside) the Mohawk. Having taken an exaggerated hiatus from their two-man band, this was the first time Two Gallants have performed together in town since SXSW 2008. That, along with the promise and prompt delivery of a new batch of songs from the boys, made for an exciting reunion for the duo and fans alike.
