Sunny Austin

Hello Austin!

We’ve arrived in sunny Austin. The weather here was just gorgeous yesterday, 28 C and sunny. We spent the day shopping away at highland mall, I got some awsome shoes at Forever 21 for just 6 bucks and then we went to check out my friend Angie Mattson’s showcase.


Angie Mattson Live

My throat has gotten worse, I have a persistant cough, pretty typically me. I get ill really easily and when I do it’s always with a sore throat and a cough. Joakim’s sister recommended Dayquil, so I got a big pack on a local drugstore. Jonas has got a cold sore and got some kind of ointment that felt like dentist anaesthetic, numbing his entire lip. I don’t think I’ll try that before the show tonight.

Then we went to a hat store and tried on hats. I actually bought a cowboy hat, but not the one in the picture. I wonder if I will ever wear it out of Texas…

Sofia Talvik live at SXSW

Fresh from a powerful performance at 2008’s Lollapalooza festival, Sweden’s Sofia Talvik is now poised to conquer the States with the release of her devastatingly beautiful third album. It’s a record of staggering elegance, with the faintest trace of Scandinavian twee and youthful exuberance. (Chris R, CD Baby)
