WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Lambchop and Tosca

Posted over 3 years ago
Prior to the MC Chris show (see below) I was at the Lambchop show down the road. (I do have some taste). The Lambchop contingent was somewhat reduced from the 15 or so member line up - just Kurt, drums, keys and a few guitars. There were, however, augmented by the Tosca string quartet. Tosca, if you are not familiar, is a hip classical act from Austin - most noted for doing the soundtrack to Waking Life.Kurt was as animated as I've seen him live - the mostly mellow tunes were a bit amped up as well. It was very cool to hear the addition of strings to the old and new songs - a layer of acoustic texture was a welcome addition.
