Sgt Dunbar kickstarted for SXSW
Good news: Good news: Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned met its Kickstarter goal for its SXSW trip and tour! The band raised more than $3,000 from 73 backers -- with nine days to spare.
You can catch Sgt Dunbar -- along with Scientific Maps, another great local band -- this coming Saturday at Lark Tavern (the show is $5). They'll also be playing Valentine's March 10 with Beware! The Other Head of Science.
Speaking of Beware! The Other Head of Science: They're having a CD release party/show at Valentine's this Friday.
Also: The local B3nson music collective, of which Sgt Dunbar and Beware! are members, was featured in a front page article about local music collectives/labels in the TU this past Sunday.
