The Return To The Revolution, In-Store Performances & More!

Take a deeper dive into a short recap of all the performers from this event in the short article written by the platform creator.


Returning with new acts, a new setup and heavier than ever, dreamsdocometrue*radio and Sound Revolution just wrapped up the second ever in-store event performances. Taken place this past Saturday, November 30th with nine Houston acts performing from 4pm - 9pm inside and outside the store.


K. cross

Kicking the event off at the starting time was local underground rapper K. cross. An incredible writer showcased tracks from his catalog throughout the 20 min set such as “Needed”, “Runaway” & “Days get hard”. This was one of his first times playing these songs lives, and he got the crowd fired up for everyone.

Eniightment

Second on the bill was a high energy hard rock trio from the city called Eniightment. Lead singer Seff Segura reached out to the store and wesley about playing of the next events, this was one of the first times someone has inquired about playing an event of ours. Hitting it hard with demos out now on SoundCloud as well as one of the biggest highlights of the nights, we had to include Eniightment on this. Segura ended their set by destroying his guitar and jumping in their recently announced previous drummers drum kit, installing a moment to remember in Sound Revolution history.

Scarlett

Next up was Scarlett, another upcoming young band, and friends of Eniightment. The two groups have been rocking the stage for a while now so it was a no brainer to include them on this. Scarlett was the first band to play when the night fall hit, playing to about thirty other spectators. Following up the energy from their friends set before, Scarlett continued rocking out the night.

The Shroons

Follow the band here


The last band outside before the switch inside (and back outside) was a local act that has been around for just a short time but has proven time and time again how good they are. The Shroons had previously played our $5 punk rock show at The White Swan Live alongside Zegovia and a few others. Playing originals such as “The Hatred” & “Nerve”, plus covers, the group always has some tricks up their sleeves whether it’s playing the guitar with their teeth, behind the back, under the legs or even on top of each others shoulders. This band always finds a way to make jaws drop and you won’t want to miss out on the next chance you get to see a set.

Last time we held an event with performers they were all inside the record store but this time we wanted to try out some variety. The beginning portion of this event with the first 4 acts were outside, next 3 acts were inside and the final 2 acts

were moved back outside.


Matthew Collins

First up inside was solo artist Matthew Collins from Pasadena, Texas. The singer songwriter had recently released his first full length record “RAIN” as well as a new single “I Know The Feeling”. Matthew performed the record live for the first time at the Houston Saengerburnd with a full band including Max Diaz and Telebastards Lead guitarist, Ed. Joined by the star guitar player, Matthew played a stripped down set for the still but receiving crowd.

The Amazing Bozo

Bringing the honky-tonk to the record store, The Amazing Bozo put a snake in everyone’s boots. Playing originals solo such as “Crybaby”, Bozo tore up the stage with all of the cowboy hits. Stay up to date with him and keep an eye out for the next bozo show but his live band he calls the boys.

Rinas

Rinas was the last solo act who played inside alongside her drummer and guitarist. With her angelic voice she sung songs from her discography like “Diana” & “Big Mouth”. She is one of the greatest female artists in the city and is an example of why we will continue taking a step in including more women in our events. Be on the lookout for some possible new music coming from Rina next year as well as more live shows.

Jaid

Follow the band here


Following up the inside performances the last two acts began setting up back outside. Jaid is a band from Houston who is breaking all barriers of hard rock and shoegaze genres. The four piece had recently came off Pity Party (Girls Club) Texas leg of tour after playing shows all summer long including the big stage at Warehouse Live Midtown. Raising the energy back up through the roof, this was the first set of the night we saw two stepping from fans in the crowd. Jaid is definitely a band you won’t want to miss the next chance you have to see them live.

our eyes go blank tonight

Follow the band here


The 4 piece “Skramz” / Post Hardcore band, our eyes go blank tonight was one of the first acts inquired for this show and for obvious reasons. Their discography is already historical as well as the undeniable pure talent among this band. The band played all the hits for the second ever DDCT*R event here at Sound Revolution closing out the night with “MATCHA BOMB !!!+¡!!+”. See their next live show which should be soon annouced.
