SXSW Inhale.

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

I’ve been so busy waiting in lines to do almost anything to even think about jumping on here and writing up a blog, however in between the lines for writstbands to get in the show, lines to get in the show with a wristband, lines to get free food, lines for picking up sxsw, lines for getting not free food, and lines to check into hotel I seem to have found a minute to try and explain just how overwhelming/fantastic this whole experience is.

I laughably pretend that day 1 of the festival I was going to get up at 8 and not only order breakfast, but go to the gym of the hotel. After waking up at 11, i quickly learned to plan a little better.

Its absolutely insane to see all the artists and industry people here walking around amongst eachother. Theres almost a mass smile in unison when walking through the convention center and looking around at all of us going about our business. It makes me want to give everyone high fives when i walk past them. Don’t worry, I don’t. Also, I know you weren’t worried. (more…)

Pet Lions and 3 more great bands are playing on Friday, January 22 at the Metro. This will likely be their last Chicago show for some time since they are focusing on writing and recording for our debut full length. It’s also FREE if you print this image, or check here. Don’t miss out!

Pet Lions rocked, made girls dance at the Bottom Lounge

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

The AEMMP Records crew showed up in force for the Pet Lions show at the Bottom Lounge last month. The show was their first since the band was signed in early November. Here Singer Karl Østby shoe-gazes into your soul.

The show was super fun with cool and interesting openers, Apteka, whose mix of hard rock and trippy effects was both abrasive and beautiful.

AEMMP Managers Naomie Mourino, Ashley Brown, and Chadd Kline meet with Head Honcho David Lewis to discuss strategy no doubt… or maybe scarf some burgers and fries.

Pet Lions continue to rock. Behind Karl, Tom Owens on guitar and keys, Matt Dahl (hidden) on drums, and Shuhei Yamamoto on Bass.

And if you’re willing to drive outside the city, you can see them again tomorrow night (Dec. 4) in Urbana, IL @ the Canopy Club.

Check out the YouTube video of “Shadows” from the show. Thanks to spleenlessdave for the upload.  It has really good sound!
