Brothers Jared & Mike Bell have been playing music together since they were young. As Lymbyc Systym, they’ve spent the last several years making music together from a distance. Jared had relocated to New York and Mike had spent some time here in Austin, meaning the creative process of making music involved crafting demos and e-mailing recordings back and forth to each other. The guys are both now living in the same city for the first time in years which should make the next recording an easier process.
In the meantime, we caught up with the brothers Bell when they were out on a brief spate of West Coast dates that wrapped up in Texas. Joined by Christopher Tignor on violin, they play a few tracks from their new album Shutter Release, a track from their debut Love Your Abuser, and close with a song from last year’s Field Studies EP, a split release with their friends This Will Destroy You.

As we approach the end of the decade, we thought it would be fun to dig into our Lounge Act archives and unearth a few sessions for you that you may not have heard for awhile. Or in alot of cases, you may not know we even recorded.
Today, we jump back to the summer of 2005 for this session with The Kills. Below is a brief synopsis written at the time along with a tracklist and stream of the entire session and interview. Enjoy!

VV and Hotel (aka Allison and Jamie) braved Cincinnati’s Opening Day baseball festivities to perform a blistering set of electro-blues. You’d never think two people could make so much noise…
Track Listing:
No Wow
I Hate The Way You Love
-Interview-
The Good Ones
Love Is A Deserter

As we approach the end of the decade, we thought it would be fun to dig into our Lounge Act archives and unearth a few sessions for you that you may not have heard for awhile. Or in alot of cases, you may not know we even recorded.
Today, we jump back to the summer of 2005 for this session with The Wrens. Below is a brief synopsis written at the time along with a tracklist and stream of the entire session and interview. Enjoy!

We were thrilled to host a session with the legendary Wrens, who stopped in prior to their local date on a mini-tour of the Midwest. A terrific band with a history of bad luck caused by label trouble, they’ve rightfully earned a great deal of acclaim for their body of work, sporadic as it may be. The guys are in fine form here, playing three songs off their last CD The Meadowlands and even reaching back for a tune from their 1994 debut, Silver.

What’s A Girl
Hopeless

Boys You Won’t

It’s hard to believe, but this will be the 26th consecutive year we’ll count down the year’s 97 Best albums. Yep, on December 17th @ 10a ET (9a CT), we’ll start at #97 and won’t stop until we reach #1 (apologies to Casey Kasem). As in previous years, the 97 Best is determined by airplay. We tabulate all of the DJ’s airplay during our live broadcasts to come up with the list, and feel that’s the best way to accurately reflect the sound of WOXY in 2009. So, make sure you carve out the whole day to listen and see where your favorites land on the list.
If you’re a history buff, here’s a look back at the previous #1 records (click the link to see that year’s entire list). You’ll notice the musical shifts from one decade to the other and sometimes, one year to the next.
