One listen to the lead single ‘Tetherbound’ off Marcus Morales's upcoming EP, The Bohemian Groove, and I’m immediately taken back to my college days, dancing away my Saturday nights in my favorite honky tonk bar with smoky air, cheap beer and pool tables. Push play on ‘Tetherbound’ and right on cue, Morales captivates you with masterfully slick guitar licks showcasing a sound that can only be developed from years of honing a craft. Complete with a surprisingly delicious twist, halfway through the song comes a driving jam session showcasing the many talents of his backing band 'The Boho Groove'. This special treat unexpected and yet a staple of Morales’s intricate songwriting. With vocals reminiscent of the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan, and his polished ripping blues influenced guitar, Marcus is guaranteed to break into the Rock scene and be noticed.
Catch Marcus Morales at his Bohemian Groove EP release party January, 10 at The Saxon Pub and listen to his debut single ‘Tetherbound’ below.

Ladyfang is an indie rock band from Austin, Tx. Cara Juan fronts the band with her sweet yet powerfully entrancing vocals floating over an energetic synchronized sound. Their music is rounded out with infectious guitar licks and driving beats. Their tunes are dancey, holding a certain playfulness to them. Founded in 2016, they've made quite a mark in Austin music proving they're here to stay.
Ladyfang will be performing this Sunday, November 11th at Cheer Up Charlie's for FullNote Presents: An Out Youth Benefit. Come see them!  Our next artist feature today is for the band, Goons. Haven’t heard of them? No worries because Goons will soon be a household name. Only having a handful of shows under their belts, Goons has hit the scene hard with a massive boom having already hit the stages of Barracuda and Stubb's. Creating an insatiable energy throughout the room when they play, Goons is sure to take a crowd and make them theirs with their pop driven anthems and hand clap worthy beats.
Catch Goons this Sunday at Cheer Up Charlies for FullNote Presents: An OutYouth Benefit Vol. 2!

Dorsia is an electro pop duo new to the Austin music scene and let me tell you, they pack a punch. With their precise pop sound and ability to combine lush, silky lyrics with upbeat tempos reminiscent of the best glam 80’s pop you can find, Dorsia sucks you into a wormhole of sound that you don’t want to find your way out of.
We can’t wait to see them perform on November 11 at FullNote Presents: An OutYouth Benefit Vol. 2. Listen to them below.
By: Mo PAYNTERScenery is a band bringing a refreshing sound to Austin’s indie rock music scene. They encapsulate what indie rock should be...a perfect mixture of simple yet complex. Scenery combines sleek lyrics, intricate melodies and head bobbing beats that will have you speeding down the highway, sunroof open, shades on, thinking about the one that got away. Each song leaving you asking for more.
FullNote Records is excited to welcome Scenery to FullNote Presents: An OutYouth Benefit Vol. 2 on November 11. Photo by Rachel Lacoss
by: mo paynterYou may have seen our next artist around town kicking ass on the sound board or tracking in the studio, but Lindsey Kappa is a woman we call a triple threat. Branching out from behind the scenes, Lindsey is a synthpop sensation. Featured on “The Fresh Ten Spotify Dance Playlist”, she is sure to dominate Austin’s club dance scene and take it to another level. Catch Lindsey Kappa’s debut performance this Sunday at Cheer Up Charlie’s for FullNote Presents: An OutYouth Benefit Vol. 2 listen to 'You don't own me'
Hex Boyfriend is a female-fronted rock band from Austin, Texas. Why mention female-fronted right upfront? Because it's the heart of their music. (Also, I love seeing strong women in music, but that’s another story!) Hex Boyfriend grabbed my attention from the forefront with their hauntingly beautiful harmonies and how well Audrey's voice blends with Ali's lead vocals. Their music showcases a level of angst and longing with the moving guitar lines and push and pull of their melodies. I feel a certain nostalgia when listening to Hex Boyfriend that reminds me of being a teenager and blasting music in my room. How can you not love that?
Hex Boyfriend will be closing out our OutYouth Benefit show on November 11th at Cheer Up Charlies. Join us and get ready for some really beautiful music! Listen below!
