The Morning Benders

I first heard of them 2-3 years ago but I've missed opportunities to see them for various reasons. But I certainly hope to make up for those lost opportunities by catching their set at Austin City Limits Festival this year. They're playing the Honda Stage at 3 pm this Sun, Oct 10th and appearing at the Waterloo Records autograph tent at 4:30 pm. Their 2010 album, Big Echo, is a beautiful example of well written pop songs. This makes me a total fangirl but something about Chris Chu's vocals makes me melt and sigh. Simple and magnificent. It's gorgeous ear candy but also very satisfying which keeps you going back for more.
