Austin alt rockers Why Not Satellite have been likened to the New Pornographers. Larry Seaman, "one of Austin's most talented pop songwriters, known for applying progressive twists to his basic tuneful instincts," mixes it up with his Standing Waves band mate Randy Franklin (Wild Seeds), CIndy Toth (Reivers), and Steve McCarthy (Wannabes). Self-titled debut out now on Classified Records.
