Us folks here along with New Orleans’ own DIY indie institutions Sun Hotel + Caddywhompus,  are very pleased to announce our very first series of showcases as a Foburg Music Festival programming partner. The first showcase will feature Chicago math-folk virtuosos and festival headliners Maps & Atlases w/ Sun Hoteland Caddywhompus at One Eyed Jacks on Saturday, March 10th. Maps & Atlases will be touring in preparation for their second full length ‘Beware and Be Grateful’ to be released on Barsuk Records April 17th.

In honor of the event, we have made available special pre-sale ticket packages which include previously unreleased material from the artists, and a limited run of fifty 18″x24″ screen printed posters by Houston artist Shelby Hohl.

From Big Hassle:
“Barsuk Records is excited to announce that Maps & Atlases will release their sophomore full-length Beware and Be Grateful on April 17th.  Rolling Stone premiered the track, saying “['Winter'] finds the band merging tuneful songcraft with tight, dense rhythms.”

The band released a teaser trailer for the album, featuring the track “Remote And Dark Years,” available at www.mapsandatlases.org. The band is also heading to South By Southwest in Austin, TX, and have just announced a string of Midwest dates before and after the festival as well as dates in Europe and the UK in April. A full headlining US tour starting in May will be announced shortly.”

    Chinquapin Records is a cooperative of artists and advocates formed late 2010 in New Orleans, LA. Though the name is still young, the community that it represents has been sharing and caring since we first fell in love with each other's music.
