SXSW 2009
More inspired by the lunacy of the Marx Brothers than, let's say, the music of Bob Dylan, Twenty Four Thousand Dollars is an acoustic outfit like no other. Based out of Austin, Texas (though conquering outside states, one city at a time), this organic attack of beat up guitar strings, tin pans, and unpaid parking tickets transcends the limitations of the genres it likes to dabble in, creating a new sound for the twenty-first century, one not made of digital landscapes, as those stuck in the technological rut may have expected, but one with the roughest and most rugged of textures. Whether performing live or recording on tape (the only way!), Twenty Four Thousand Dollars bring a vitality long forgotten in the American musical vernacular. It is time the world takes notice! Look out! You're being handed a bill and the cost of living on this side of town is coming to exactly TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!

ONE CLEVERLY PERCEPTIVE DUDE SAYS: "I heard this off of davisfleetwood's youtube video and thought I was listening to an old 60s song. I was so surprised this wasn't a well-known song, it prompted me to actually make a myspace account just to let you guys know how much I liked it. Great lyrics and nice arrangement."-nice guy on myspace
