Man oh man, it has hit like a ton of bricks. Now that the Foggers have departed Austin for their ancestral homes in the DC area, we have to take five for a moment. It was a blast, but there has to be a bit of space after entertaining so many people, in the audience, on stage at Threadgill’s WHQ, and online via Livestream. We sure hope you enjoyed it all, we sure did. The guys are going to start off-loading all the glorious moments we captured during our Spring Music Fog Marathon. It feels like a rite of passage, actually.
“Scene Of The Crime” is an easy breezy tune from Riley Etheridge Jr. As we step away from the Austin ‘scene’ that was SXSW® 2012, this is a perfect song to while away the day to. You can feel the Big Easy influence in it, which to my mind, is just what the doctor ordered. Riley lives in New York now, but you can still track the south in his music. It is a rich gumbo of rock, country, blues, soul, and folk. Just throw it into the pot and let it slow cook all day. In fact, that is not a bad idea for dinner tonight. I am getting my crock pot out right now! BTW, this song is from Riley’s album Powder Keg, though in January, he put a new EP out called Better Days.
