Okkervil River @ Beck's Music Box (29/2/2008)

The last time Austin band Okkervil River graced our shores they played to a small audience that barely filled the Rosemount Hotel. On this visit, in front of a sell-out crowd, they captivated the audience with every note.

Via Tania takes to the Laneways

Chicago act Via Tania will be returning to Australia in a few weeks for St. Jerome's Laneway Festival. “It is going to be a much fuller sound with bass, keyboards, drums-all the ground components. It is a much more atmospheric sound where we have been experimenting with slap pedals and old drum machines so producing a very organic sound”
