Catching The Quiet Company (@QuietCompanyTX) at Bar 96 (@96InAustin) @SXSW 2013

Earlier, I had encountered members of Austin indie-rock band The Quiet Company across from the Austin Convention Center in Brushy Park, handing out flyers and promoting their music. So you can imagine my surprise when I discovered that the band that caused me to walk into Bar 96 was in fact The Quiet Company. They are in fact a melodic, tuneful aggregation, with horn players, and their songs often feature anthemic hooks that get the audience involved.
