Big thanks to everyone who came out. The turnout was great, the bands were great, and we’ve got some great photos to prove it (with A. Jayne behind the lens). Hit the jump for more.

Tomorrow will be our first assembled show taking place in the dank confines that is Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studios. Check here for the finely tuned words Ryan put together and for some good tunes too, of course.

Weekly Tape Deck is very proud to announce our first showcase, brace yourself because its a doozy. The show will take place October 10th at everyone’s favorite Denton, Texas venue: Rubber Gloves. The show will be headlined by the beautifully talented Bosque Brown, whose album Baby has been lovin’ on my speakers since it was released in March of this year. Bosque Brown is a pseudonym for the soulful Mara Lee Miller whose élan vital is her hauntingly beautiful voice; perhaps best described as one Flannery O’ Connor crooning Cat Power songs. We are also very lucky to have the talents of My Gold Mask playing the show, as they will be on tour burning up the Midwest as the dog days of Summer take a backseat for the one-dog nights of fall. The MGM duo of Gretta Rochelle and Jack Armondo have been on WTD’s radar for a bit and we are elated to see them live; you should be as well. Local act This Old House rounds up our first showcase, this band is part of the every-growing music scene in Denton and paints palette’s of hazy skies with their brand of what sounds to be minimalist Robin Guthrie-inspired pop songs with a dash of Americana for some sweetness. So there you have it folks, our very first showcase….you say you’re not convinced yet? Well take a listen to the tracks below and that might change your tone.

Been a while since we’ve talked about these guys, but My Gold Mask are back to recording. In the process of another ep, they sent over this cover of Jackie Deshannon’s “Bette Davis Eyes” (you’re probably more familiar with the Kim Carnes version). In other MGM news, we’ve confirmed a date at Rubber Gloves in Denton with local favorites This Old House on October 10th. We’ll have more on that when it gets closer to the date.

No this isn’t the home improvement tv show, this is Denton music at its best. My little brother actually mentioned these guys to me. Think he might be friends with one of the guys (what a groupie). Unsigned for now, This Old House offers ethereal “in the clouds” pop. Material on these guys isn’t the easiest thing to find, but I have a few snippets of some live shows via YouTube. The will actually be playing Denton (Andy’s on Apr 30th) and Dallas (The Lounge on May 28th). Really wish they were going to be playing a better venue in Dallas, the Lounge kinda sucks, but I’ll still be going. They also have some tunes on their myspace page. “River Day” is probably one of my favorites. “Locust” is good, but it sounds a little too much like that Aqualung guy’s tunes on Gray’s Anatomy. Love these guys, check em out, they’ll be on tour for the next couple of months.
