Quick post on the 2009 SXSW set from O+S, the Birmingham, Albama based band from Orenda Fink (of Azure Ray, Little Red Rocket, Art In Manila) and Cedric LeMoyne (bassist from the still amazing, wish-they-would-get-back-together Remy Zero.)

I'd had previous, extremely pleasant, encounters with both Orenda (check out this Azure Ray recording from 2004) and Cedric at previous live shows (in fact if it wasn't for Cedric, one of my favorite live recordings of all time wouldn't exist... listen here), and was pumped to hear they had formed a new band, O+S (O plus S) whose record was going to come out the week after their SXSW performance - buy it here.

To be honest, I would have much preferred to hear them at another venue at SXSW, as the club they played at was extremely dark and didn't have the best set up - but they still managed to play a great set, and I wouldn't have missed it (in fact we had to catch a little bicycle cab to make it the 10 blocks from Cedar Street Courtyard to make the show).

Here's my favorite track from the show.

Side note - the picture above is one of my favorite photos that I took at SXSW in 2009.
