L.A. band Dawes made its way across the U.S. (via a tour of independent record stores) to New York City to give a small audience of WFUV members a taste of their upcoming album, Stories Don't End, due out on April 9th. They played soon-to be-classics like "Someone Will" and "Hey Lover," as well as fan favorites like "Time Spent In Los Angeles" and "A Little Bit of Everything."
L.A.-based Dawes (@DawesTheBand) is well-rooted in the Southern California folk-country-rock world, it’s in their blood. But they’ve seen a whole lot more of the world since releasing two big albums and doing some big touring.
Tune in Friday, March 15 from 1-7pm for our live show from the SXSW Day Stage: Charles Bradley, Dawes, Divine Fits, Emmylou Harris with Rodney Crowell, Iron & Wine, Pickwick and Vampire Weekend.
This year we're working together with some of our favorite public radio stations and calling the show "Public Radio Rocks." ('Cause it does.)

Sometimes it felt like we were paying as much attention to the weather radar as the music, but in the end, there was sun.
Day 3 at Newport had quite a finale: the skies cleared up, and a mutual admiration society of Dawes, Jonathan Wilson, Tom Morello and Sara Watkins held court on the Fort stage with Jackson Browne as their leader, soaking it all up. "Lawyers, Guns and Money" with a Tom Morello solo... Maybe the first time an electric guitar has been played with teeth at Newport? Probably a tie with "These Days" for my highlight of Jackson's set.
One of our favorite festivals, Clearwater's Great Hudson River Revival, is coming up this weekend, June 16 & 17 at Croton Point Park in Croton-on-Hudson, NY.
