Hacienda at SXSW (The Wall Street Journal)

Another happy accident for me: Hacienda—three brothers and a cousin—plays an engaging blend of roots rock and R&B, enriched by an old Korg keyboard with a sound that falls somewhere between “96 Tears” and a roller-rink organ. They’ve posted a bunch of songs from their album “Loud is the Night” (Alive) on their MySpace page. I sampled a few, then downloaded the whole thing, a steal at $9.99 on iTunes. - Jim Fusilli / Wall Street Journal
