From Fort Worth Weekly Written by Caroline Collier, Jimmy Fowler, Eric Griffey, Joshua Loewen, Anthony Mariani, Justin Press, Jeff Prince, and Steve Steward. Photos by Vishal Malhotra NEW ARTIST A strong stack here, no doubt, and diverse, too. There’s Pretty Baby, the sound of angry, lightning-fueled, leather-clad pleasurebots making sweet love. And Telegraph Canyon, a septet that hearkens to Depression-Era depression ancient instruments, dusty vibes, wrist-slitting tension and all. And the Rivercrest Yacht Club, a beat-tastic boys’ club of sophisticated rhymes, rakish but moth-gnawed boaters and polos, and multi-colored samples. And alt-rockers the Black Bonnets, who are no mas but whose members are still gigging, most in singer-songwriter Kevin Aldridge’s solo project, Chatterton. And then there’s Proud Warrior, a throwback to elegant though non-glossy ‘90s rock, and the Frontier Brothers, an Austin-Fort Worth trio that’s as radio-poppy as legitimately indie, and, lastly, the Panther City Bandits, who just want to kick your ass and have a beer with you afterward. A.M.
