2011 has been a large year for Futurebirds. The Athens outfit has released two well-received EPs; road-dogged the nation with bands such as Widespread Panic, Drive-By Truckers, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Gary Clark, Jr., J Roddy Walston & the Business, Thomas Hardy, and grass giraffes; rocked to rave reviews at Bonnaroo Music Festival and Austin City Limits; and generally simply had a swell time—though brains and livers might scream otherwise.

The band is currently in and out of the studio working on the follow-up to the acclaimed, Hampton’s Lullaby. It’s sure to chicken-tetrazzinify your frontal lobe. Stay dialed.

Grass Giraffes is a funny family. If you’re thinking Parenthood, the Athens-based trio would fit somewhere between Rick Moranis’ genius house and Steve Martin’s beastly brood. Odd couple Eddie the Wheel and Steven Trimmer have joined at the hip to form one of the most proficient songwriting duos this drowsy little town has seen in some years. Throw in drummer, Robby “Bobby” Casso, a hyperactive whipper snapper with a penchant for Camels and Keith Moon, and you’ve got an act that’s sure to raise some rainbows.
