Earlier today Austin-based punkeros Sober Daze released their new skate/music video for “Live To Shred.” The single is their first from their forthcoming 7” split with San Antonio’s Knockin’ Chucks, scheduled for an April release from the group’s own Dazed Records. The 7″ will be made available in both vinyl and digital download formats.

Sober Daze was formed in Puerto Rico in 2002 by friends Peter Figueroa, Alex “Korn” Rivera, and Chris “Fatty” Bourcy. Shortly after they moved to Austin in 2003, they became notorious for their punk rock house parties with half pipe skateboard ramps and a tree house bar in their back yard at one point. The group currently performs as a four piece thanks to their addition of guitarist Alex “Rager” Loughborough in 2013.

Those in Austin can see Sober Daze live at the Punk Vs. Rockabilly 5 showcase on Mar. 16 at Flamingo Cantina and at the Eastside Throwdown Day Party on Mar. 20 at The Sahara Lounge.

Juana Molina releases music video for “Sin Guía, No”

April 29, 2014 By Austin Vida Staff

Juana MolinaArgentinian singer-songwriter Juana Molina released her new music video for her song “Sin Guía, No.” Directed by Argentine filmmaker/artist Dr Sepian, the video was shot in Tierra de Fuego, at the southernmost tip of the South American continent. It’s inspired by the Hain initiation ceremonies which used to be performed by the Shelknam people, who were among the original inhabitants of Patagonia. Young men on the verge of puberty were sent out alone in the forest, and had to perform a series of tasks (such as hunting, or fighting demons of the forest) before being considered as grown men and allowed to come back to the fold of the tribe.

“Sin Guía, No” can be found off Molina’s latest album, Wed 21, released in October 2013 via Brussels-based label Crammed Discs. The label has also reissued Molina’s back catalog that includes her four previous albums: Segundo (originally released in 2000), Tres Cosas (2002), Son (2006) and Un Día (2008). All of Molina’s albums are now available through all main digital stores worldwide, as well as on Crammed’s online store.

* Juana Molina will perform at the Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC) in New York City in July. For more details, visit www.latinalternative.com.
