Spiral Stairs (Pavement's Scott Kannberg) releases his third album under that name, We Wanna Be Hyp-No-Tized, out NOW on the Nine Mile Records label and on Coolin' By Sound in Australia / New Zealand.

Consequence of Sound says the "rip-roaring first single "Hyp-No-Tized" embodies feel good vibes with some bouncy brass and slick riffs" and Stereogum calls "Hyp-No-Tized" a rampaging rocker backed by agitated horns and a gang chorus; the music is a refreshing change of pace for Spiral Stairs.

We're excited to announce that 'Catpaws' by A. Sinclair comes out on February 1st.

‘Catpaws’ widens Sinclair’s songwriting focus and brings a new level of focused energy to song craft and the most intensely rocking album of their career.

A. Sinclair is doing a PRE-SALE campaign with PledgeMusic. Go HERE and grab the album and some other special goodies.

Glorietta is the brainchild of Matthew Logan Vasquez of Delta Spirit. He wrangled several songwriter friends (Noah Gundersen, David Ramirez, Kelsey Wilson of Wild Child, Jason Robert Blum, Nathaniel Rateliff, and Adrian Quesada) to a remote location in New Mexico for nine days of recording. Everyone brought songs. Everyone drank tequila. Everyone soaked in the hot tub. Songs + Tequila + Hot Tub = their debut record out now!

You can find it in your favorite record store, you can stream or purchase it online everywhere, or you can catch one of their (limited) tour dates and pick up a copy from the band themselves.

Carson McHone's new Album 'Carousel' was announced today via "American Songwriter". Out October 26th!

Pledgemusic is running a campaign to pre-order the Record (180 Gram Vinyl + CD + Digital) with some extra unique bundles (T Shirts + Hats + Signed Test Pressings + Private Concerts).

Golden Dawn Arkestra has joined the Nine Mile family! We'll be releasing their anticipated new full-length Children Of The Sun on June 1. Producer Erik Wofford (Black Angels, My Morning Jacket) was able to fuse the band's polyglot influences (funk, Afropop, Tropicalia and psych rock) into a lightning bolt of sound.

Check out the video for the single "Wings Of Ra" on self-titled Magazine's website, and order Children Of The Sun on Bandcamp.

At night, we've got two(!) official showcases on Th. March 15 at Cooper's BBQ (217 Congress Ave) and on Fr. March 16 at Hotel Vegas (1902 E. 6th St). The posters above have the full line ups and details.
We're wrapping up the week at one of our favorite Austin institutions - ABGB Brewery (1305 W. Oltorf St.) - for a Day + Night party on March 17 (St. Patty's Day) featuring both Nine Mile artists as well as many of our friends. Swing by and check out the music along with their award winning beer and incredible pizza. We'll be there from 2pm - 11pm.

COME FEEL THE POWER - SWEET SPIRIT'S ST. MOJO

Austin band Sweet Spirit returns with their much anticipated new full-length record St. Mojo on April 7.

Like it's predecessor, 2015's Cokomo, the new record is full of the theatrical playing and crisp songwriting that has made the band one of the country's premiere live acts. Where St. Mojo diverges, however, is in it's expanded arrangements (horns, strings, percussion) and wide dynamic range. Gorgeous power ballads sit beside stadium rockers and wistful acoustic numbers, proving the band is one of the most versatile out there.

Produced by veteran Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Deer Tick, Diamond Rugs) and engineered by Grammy-winner Stuart Sikes (Jack White, Cat Power), St. Mojo has already gained attention from taste-maker stations such as KUTX, The Current, and WXPN who named the band their May 2017 "Artist To Watch."

Seattle artist Shelby Earl returns from her long hiatus with the beautifully crafted new record The Man Who Made Himself A Name. The single "Strong Swimmer" was featured on NPR's Weekend Edition, while title track premiered on She Shreds Magazine's website, and with a feature interview with Shelby where she discusses new musical influences, her new band, and working with Martin Feveyear (Kings Of Leon, Mark Lineman) who produced the new record. Check it out here. The Man Who Made Himself A Name comes out on March 10 on Nine Mile Records in all formats.

Austin band Tinnarose releases their sophomore full-length My Pleasure Has Returned on October 14. PureVolume premiered the first video "Love Is For All," a blast of jangly goodness featuring Morris Ramos' inspired guitar lick, Devon McDermott's heavenly vocals, and dancer Hailey Lauren gliding through space!

My Pleasure Has Returned can be pre-ordered on Bandcamp in digital, CD and (translucent) vinyl formats.

The band is celebrating the release of their new record in Austin on October 14 at Barracuda, and then hitting the road for a full East Coast / Midwest tour.
