BOOHER: “All Out Of Ideas”

Song of the Day

You find an act in town. You fall in love with their music. You start making regular appearances at their shows. And then, sometimes seemingly out of the blue…they quit giggin’. Most of us have been there; it’s more or less a rite of passage for any dedicated scenester. But when that act does make that triumphant comeback? Boy, oh boy, how sweet it is.

So we have fantastic news for lovers of longtime Austin indie rock institution BOOHER: they’re back, babyyy! That’s right, after putting things on pause for both pandemic and personal purposes, the eponymous passion project of Michael Booher finally breaks a near-half-decade hiatus. And with some welcome new additions to boot; alongside guitarist Ben Lance, bassist Evan Crowley, drummer Keith Lough, and multi-instrumentalists Michael St. Clair and Brent Baldwin, this latest era of BOOHER invites A. Sinclair’s titular frontman Aaron Sinclair into the fold as a chief collaborator.

The BOOHER boys have been cookin’, and not just in the Texas heat, but with a handful of bold new tunes that feature both Michael and Aaron in the producer’s chair. They’ll be unfurling some of that fresh stuff 10:45PM this Saturday at Chess Club as part of a triple single release show , following Paul Stinson at 9PM, Intercom Heights at 9:45PM, and Dossey at 11:45PM. And the single in question, “All Out Of Ideas” (with its grungy gauge on dynamic range and a hypnotic lead guitar riff) proves that Michael B. et al. are clearly anything but. And between two more originals set to drop in October and December, respectively, plus an album aiming for streaming next Summer, it’s never been a better time to get behind BOOHER.

To any haters? We say “boo hoo”.
