Do512 - What to do in Austin

Click "I like it" to RSVP.

Austin-based mod­ern folk-rock out­fit The Geor­gian Com­pany cap­ture fleet­ing and poignant moments of life through the cin­e­matic sto­ries cel­e­brated in their songs. With two mar­ried cou­ples, a pair of broth­ers and a cou­ple close friends mak­ing up the band, there’s a lot of inter­per­sonal energy chan­neled into their musi­cal col­lab­o­ra­tion, and the result is moving.

Since their live debut in early 2008, The Geor­gian Com­pany has made a name for them­selves in Austin’s sat­u­rated music scene. They have a unique appeal to both indie-rock and Amer­i­cana fans, evi­denced by notable appear­ances along­side Robert Earl Keen and Band of Hea­thens as well as What Made Mil­wau­kee Famous and Mon­a­hans. Their first release is Side A (2009, Pants of Fate) and the follow-up, Side B is slated for release on Sep­tem­ber 28.

The Geor­gian Com­pany are singer/songwriter George Irwin on acoustic gui­tar and banjo, Chris Nine on keys and back-up vocals, her hus­band Phil McJunk­ins on pedal steel, Topher Hyink on bass and Travis Hyink on elec­tric gui­tar, Adam Shal­len­berg on drums and back up vocal­ists Jenny Kroen­ing and Dixie Rid­dle Irwin.
