Will Johnson is probably best known for his role as frontman of the band Centro-Matic, who have been putting out quality albums since the mid 1990’s. In the past year or so though, Will has had his hands full with several other really interesting projects. Among them was a role as a touring member of Monsters Of Folk, where Will played drums and travelled across the world with the super group.

Will also stayed busy working on solo recordings and putting together a great record with fellow musician and friend Jason Molina. The Molina and Johnson album was put together over a couple weeks by the two prolific artists and sees them collaborating and creating some incredible songs. In this solo set with Will, we are treated to two songs from that record, one unreleased tune from an upcoming solo album and another new song that was originally written by Woody Guthrie that will be a part of an upcoming project Will is involved in along with Jay Farrar, Anders Parker and Jim James.

In the fall of 2009, another buzz band was emerging from the very fertile New York scene, although not from the Brooklyn area for once. Freelance Whales claimed a different borough as home in Queens, and brought with them a melodic and layered pop sound that had us charmed immediately. One of the ways the band became well known in New York was due to the fact that they had a regular location and time slot to perform their music in the Subway tunnels. Then in the fall they were one of the more talked about new bands at CMJ and stopped by our studios in December to lay down this excellent session.

They treated us to 4 songs off of their debut album Weathervanes, which the band self released in the fall of 2009 and will be re-releasing in the spring of 2010 with help from Frenchkiss/MOM + POP Records. They also unveiled a brand new track that we are happy to bring you in this session as well. Enjoy the set and get ready to hear alot about Freelance Whales in 2010!

Oklahoma-based space rockers The Flaming Lips will make their triumphant return to Austin on March 12, performing at the Austin Music Hall. WOXY is proud to let you know that we’ll have a pair of tickets to give away to a couple of lucky listeners.

The Flaming Lips will be touring in support of their latest full-length, Embryonic as well as their collaboration with Stardeath and White Dwarfs with Henry Rollins and Peaches and their version of Dark Side of the Moon. Embryonic has been hailed as a return to form for the band, garnering plenty of praise in 2009. Pitchfork said of the record, “Musically, too, Embryonic leans heavily on the Lips’ formative 60s/70s psych-rock influence (like In a Priest Driven Ambulance’s “Take Meta Mars” before it, Embryonic’s formidable opener “Convinced of the Hex” grooves heavily on Can’s “Mushroom”), but never before has the band recorded an album so unwaveringly sinister, or so devoid of pop-song levity. (Hell, even Zaireeka had “The Big Ol’ Bug Is the New Baby Now”.) Wayne Coyne no longer assumes the role of the endearingly creaky, puppet-toting crooner. Instead, he’s a world-weary fatalist describing scenes of environmental holocaust in a chillingly unaffected monotone on the rampaging “See the Leaves”. Or he’s a cult leader deviously summoning his minions on “Sagittarius Silver Announcement”, before leading them to a fiery demise on the monstrous, stoner-metal onslaught of “Worm Mountain” (featuring fuzzbox-stomping assistance from MGMT). The atmosphere of dread reaches its fever pitch in the album’s spellbinding seven-minute centerpiece “Powerless”, where, over top a coolly ominous bass riff, Coyne’s nervous verses yield to a Syd Barrett-on-Mandrax guitar freak out.”

Tickets on sale Jan. 30. ($35) Email woxycontests @ gmail.com with the subject line “Flaming Lips” to be entered to win tickets.

Fiery Furnaces are hitting the road and heading to Austin to play the Parish on January 28.

In 2009, the brother-sister duo Matt and Eleanor Friedberger released “The End Is Near”, a full length called I’m Going Away and its reworked covers companion Take Me Round Again. They also premiered the video for “Even in the Rain”, featuring the Friedbergers as well as Ted Travelstead (a friend and co-writer of the director Scott Jacobson), Jon Wurster (drummer for Superchunk and the Mountain Goats and part of the brilliant radio comedy team Scharpling and Wurster), Jason Loewenstein (bassist for The Fiery Furnaces and also a member of Sebadoh) and of course John Oliver (Daily Show).

The band didn’t make it to Austin on their last round of shows, so we’re happy to be presenting their show here in Austin together with Austinist and The Onion. Send an email to us at woxycontests @ gmail.com with the subject line ‘Fiery Furnaces’ to be entered to win a pair of free tickets to the show.

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.

We know you have been waiting patiently, and just itching with anticipation about when our Lounge Acts series would make its 2010 debut. Well, wait no longer, because today we air the very first session of the new year. And just so you know we are serious, we have not only todays set to share, but a total of three before this week is complete.

Today at 3pm ET, 2pm Central, we have a session with Lymbyc Systm that will be airing and if you haven’t heard their excellent album Shutter Release on our airwaves, well you probably haven’t been listening much, but just in case, here is a free download from it.
Lymbyc Systym – Ghost Clock

On Thursday at 3pm ET, 2 Central, you get a real treat as we air a session with Freelance Whales that we recorded at the end of 2009, the set features material from their debut disc Weathervanes, which they released on their own last year, and Frenchkiss Records will be re-releasing in March of 2010. In addition to the stuff from their album, there is a new and unreleased tune in the mix as well.

And then on Friday, to round out the week, we have a session to share with you from Will Johnson. You probably know Will from his role as the frontman of Centro-matic but Will also released an excellent album along with Jason Molina last fall and drops by our studio to play some songs from it. That set is scheduled to air at 12:30 ET, 11:30 Central.
