Cursive, Capgun Coup, and Booher And The Turkeys at Mohawk PatioMohawk Patio 912 Red River St, Austin, TX
Screenplay in hand, Cursive frontman Tim Kasher moved to L.A. from Omaha for the same reason many others do: the movie industry. Unlike most, he kept his expectations realistic, which is easy when you lead some of the best indie-rock acts in the business. Although Kasher takes breaks to dabble in The Good Life, Cursive remains his primary concern. In the spring of 2009, the band released its seventh album, Mama, I’m Swollen, another addition to a long line of heady, excellent post-punk records that shows Kasher has plenty to keep himself busy if the whole movie thing doesn’t pan out. Kasher could go back to Nebraska, too, to be hailed as a saint by the young musicians raised on his and his fellow Saddle Creek-ers fitful pop—bands like the frenetic Capgun Coup, whose bruised-and-battered shambling here is matched by locals Booher And The Turkeys.
