QTY takes their classic indie rock to SXSW

Last Monday, School Night! held a free show at Baby’s All Right with Active Bird Community as a headliner. You never know what to expect from opening acts, but this time we were in for a pleasant surprise. QTY is a couple playing music reminiscent of classics such as Bob Dylan and Lou Reed, but with a sonic attitude closer to the Jesus and Mary Chain. Their song "Rodeo," which seems to tackle the couple’s relationship, delivers plenty of rock’n’roll attitude, strong songwriting, and a satisfyingly bright distorted guitar sound. If you are traveling to Austin for SXSW in two weeks, you’ll have an opportunity to catch these guys live at Maggie Mae’s on March 17th.

We added this song to The Deli’s playlist of Best songs by emerging NYC artists – check it out!
