64556 <p>Little Joy is new collaboration between Brazilian singer-guitarist Rodrigo Amarante of Los Hermanos, drummer Fabrizio Moretti of The Strokes, and Los Angeles-based musician Binki Shapiro. When these three friends got together for a jam session they ended up with an easily accessible pop album that mixes a carefree attitude with south-of-the-border influences and elements of Beach Boys-esque 60's pop. Up-and-comers Dead Trees and True Widow open the joyous show at The Parish on Saturday.</p> <p><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Click "I Like It!" to win free tickets! 3 pairs will be given away!<br /></strong></span></em></p> http://do512.com/event/2008/11/29/little-joy-w-dead-trees http://do512.com/event/2008/11/29/little-joy-w-dead-trees.xml Saturday 11/29/08 20081130T020000Z/20081130T020000Z 0 94.0 08:00 PM Sat, 29 Nov 2008 20:00:00 -0600 Sat, 29 Nov 2008 20:00:00 -0600 Vote on this event by clicking "So Do I!" to win free tickets! 48 SAT http://s3.amazonaws.com/dostuff-production/photos/165132/do512ad-littlejoy_sq_90.jpg The Parish 152 <div id="WebPartWPQ2" class="ms-WPBody"> <div>The Parish room is one of the key stops for any visitor to Austin.

That was a great little record! A perfect barbecue record!" The modest genius of Little Joy is that now he (or you) doesn't have to wait 15 years." http://do512.com/band/little-joy littlejoy http://s3.amazonaws.com/dostuff-production/photos/155361/m_83ff4bdbd9d45622a1120a3a9730a1f0_poster.jpg 398072115 http://www.myspace.com/littlejoymusic LOS ANGELES, California mg9pshkv8Qk http://do512.com/band/dead-trees deadtrees http://s3.amazonaws.com/dostuff-production/photos/155421/m_06a4da92e8fece68cd3da6de41c84b1f_poster.jpg 144367727 http://www.myspace.com/thedeadtrees Portland, Oregon http://do512.com/band/true-widow-2 truewidow http://s3.amazonaws.com/dostuff-production/photos/172245/m_4c8b8619ca914c1a91e351ca7dfd971a_poster.jpg 212479711 http://www.myspace.com/truewidow DALLAS, Texas 3e7VZXO4qVY
