Come see Memoryhouse, The Loom and Cat Martino this Saturday in the Der Rathskeller at 9:30 PM!

Memoryhouse, a dreampop ensamble from Sub Pop Records, is currently in the final stages of production for their first LP after a September release of a fully re-recorded, remixed and re-mastered version of their EP, The Years. If you haven’t yet, check out the dreamy sound of Memoryhouse in the video below.

The show will kick off with indie-folk songstress Cat Martino, who has opened for the likes of Rufus Wainwright, RIDE frontman Mark Gardener, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and more.

Star Slinger has been selling out a string of shows on his U.S. tour and next Saturday he brings it all in here at Union South. Very recently he signed with Mountain Dew’s Green Label Sound along with artists like Chromeo and (—>) Neon Indian.  His first official single from the label, “Dumbin’”,  features soul singer Reggie B.
