http://YouTube.com/SXSWLAWNPARTY Cass McCombs performed songs from his forthcoming album; Sharon Van Etten was showcasing tracks from her breakthrough Epic.

Cass McCombs rolled into our Lawn Party on Thursday with a stellar new set of music from his upcoming album Wit's End, due out next month on Domino. The lazy, dusty songs were the perfect tonic for a hot Texas afternoon, and the crowd greeted each tune like an old friend, and drank in the warm, wonderful vibes rippling off the stage.

Sharon Van Etten is coming off an incredible year that saw the Brooklyn bard's profile balloon. Her excellent Epic album found the singer-songwriter backed by a dynamic rock band who took her aching, sun-drenched songs to a whole new level On the Hill Stage Thursday, Sharon thanked her band for teaching her to rock, and the churning guitars and nuanced rhythm section gave Sharon and her soulful and sincere songs power and punch that convinced hundreds of adoring fans and converted many new ones.

  • love cass mccombs. i wish people would realize what good music is.

  • Why so many dislikes? County Line by Cass McCombs is so insanely good and the most heartfelt song of the last 2 years, seriously? I don't want to sound pretentious, but are you people deaf. Cass is on his Levon Helm swag with this song.
