I first heard about Givers during my SXSW research days this past winter when a friend hooked his ipod up to my speakers and they serenaded our dinner. Unfortunately, I missed them at the fest. I heard of them the second time when a stranger at a concert heard me talking about them and grabbed my shoulders and insisted that go to their concert. “They’re AMAZING” he praised. With such insistance from a perfect stranger, I immediately bought a ticket for their June 8th show at Antone’s. They are billed as dance/ pop/ indie/ folk, how can it be anything but great?
Their first full-length album, “In Light” is being released the day before their Austin show and in typical amazing NPR fashion, they are streaming it all online for your listening pleasure. It is fabulous and the more I listen to it, the more I think they will live up to that strangers promise of a great show and be AMAZING!
