Russell Taine Jr.: “Strangers”

Support for KUTX’s Love Austin Music Month coverage comes from Eldorado Cafe, embracing a community of folks who believe sharing food and music feeds the soul.

I’ve said it before, but Austin quartet Russell Taine Jr. is about as cozy Austin as it gets. The kind of band you hear pouring out of a dark bar you might not have otherwise noticed. It sounds like that welcoming, sticky-sweet dive bar aroma.

Their new EP Ghost (out last month) is “shaped by an idea from French philosopher Henri Bergson that every moment we live is colored by every moment we’ve lived before.” Everything is everything and the landscape our lives changes with every lived experience. This philosophy is front and center on their single “Strangers,” layering this philosophy into the fabric of their southern rock meets 90’s indie inspired sound.

Russell Taine Jr. has an EP release show tonight at Captain Quack’s Soundspace on Menchaca Rd.
