About Me |
|
| Buxton is a folk act based in the LaPorte/Houston area. They've played with such notable acts as Okkervil River, Akron/Family, Man Man, Great Lake Swimmers, Maria Taylor, Copeland, Colour Revolt, Anathallo, Look Mexico, Gatsbys American Dream, Statistics and Denison Witmer. After a couple of Texas tours, a Gulf Coast tour and an East Coast tour they went in to record their follow up to 'Red Follows Red' entitled 'A Family Light'. It is being released on January 19th, 2008 on the Mia Kat Empire label. Keep an eye out for tour dates in March and the following summer
More songs are available to listen to at PureVolume READ THE REVIEW OF 'A FAMILY LIGHT' BY THE HOUSTON CHRONICLE HERE"...an album that weaves heartbreaking tales and thoughtful musicianship with folk, country and indie-rock ideas to create an electric, exciting collection of songs"- Sara Cress, The Houston Chronicle READ THE REVIEW OF 'A FAMILY LIGHT' BY THE HOUSTON PRESS HERE"Simply put, this album's a stunner...the band has an all-too-rare sense of dynamics and knack for strong choruses and male-female, call-and-response vocals." - John Nova Lomax - Houston PressREAD OUR INTERVIEW WITH SPACE CITY ROCK HERE"Straight out of LaPorte, out in the Houston 'burbs, comes some of the coolest mostly-acoustic music you're likely to hear this side of Austin. Buxton are one of a small handful of indie-folk bands in town who've taken the current folk idiom and pulled it backwards to an earlier time, and they're one of the best around, for my money, in or out of Houston." - Space City RockREAD THE INTERVIEW / REVIEW OF 'RED FOLLOWS RED' BY THE HOUSTON CHRONICLE HERE"What they ended up with on last year's release, Red Follows Red, is a rambling pretty library of stories anchored by Trevino's startling warble and Willis' twee plucking."- Sara Cress, The Houston Chronicle BUY 'RED FOLLOWS RED'ONLINE AT CD BABY - OR AT SOUND EXCHANGEOr you can download the songs from the album at Apple iTunes , AudioLunchbox , Bitmunk , Destra , Emusic , GreatIndieMusic , GroupieTunes , HearMusic , Inprodicon , Iriver Media Online , Liquid Digital Media , MOD Systems , MP3tunes , MSN Music , MusicIsHere , MusicNet , MusicNow , Napster , NextRadio , PassAlong , PayPlay , Puretracks , QTRnote , Rhapsody , Tradebit , USEN Corporation , and YooPeDoo .
