I actually did go out in February, but found disappointing shows / nothing to write about. So I was happy to see "City of Decades" do a show at Piano's a week ago Friday. It's great to be back on track hearing some good bands doing good shows.
City of Decades is a three-piece band from Austin. They were the opener for the evening. This is one of the stories where the band live is a little different than the band on line. The live performance was a little more forceful and less laid-back than the web music. Also, we see in the web music that the vocals take the lead along with strong guitars. ... But in the live performance it was the drums that took the lead. The drums provided the music with a great deal of texture, giving it an unexpected nuance in both tempo and volume. Liked their show a lot.
One of the songs they played at the show is their lead track on line, "Whiskey & Vinyl" :::
City of Decades will be returning back East in June, doing another show at Pianos on June 24 and one at Rockwood on June 25. If you would like to visit them in the meantime, here is the click to their Facebook page ::: City of Decades on Facebook (CLICK HERE)
