The Vliets Tie for 1st place with david thomas jones for 1st Place in Best of Austin Open Submissions

The Vliets pump out psychedelic rock with a hint of electronic vibrations. This dazed rock trio began in Dallas, with bimonthly commutes to Austin, and has been playing live shows since 2010. Even though bass/keyboard/drum-master Daniel Gonzalez recently moved to Chicago in 2012, the band collaborates and works through e-mail, long calls and the occasional meet-up. Impressive, huh? – Brandi Lukas
