There was only ONE band that we found on 6th street in Austin last year giving away free hugs and that was Quiet Company. They showed us their video on a PSP, and invited us to their last SXSW show on a lonely Sunday night after SXSW when everyone had already left Austin. And then they serenaded us with their pop music.

Who are they? Well, one of the best pop outfits I’ve heard in recent years. Quiet Company is led by Taylor Muse their latest album Everyone You Love With Be Happy Soon was one of my favorite releases of 2009 and is on repeat on my iTunes constantly.

If I remember, I believe they’re playing a lot of shows at SXSW this year, and I’ll definitely be at at least one of those. Maybe two.
