They are premiering their video for their new song, River which is off debut three song EP Strangers which is available on iTunes, Google Play,Amazon and Spotify. It is a great new track and the story behind the video location is also interesting. Frontman Alex Dugan explains, “In the end we decided to do what we do best–we found a cool spot that we liked and shot it live. We set up in the basement of this historic 150-year-old building here in Austin. The basement allegedly used to be where they kept the gold during the Texas Constitution, I’ve also heard it was used to be a brothel in the 1800’s, but now it’s this super awesome Indian restaurant. Austin has such crazy history if you really look hard enough.” Check out the video here: You can definitely see how [Read More]

The Cerny Brothers premiere new song, The Kid off their upcoming album; Sleeping Giant

May 5, 2015

The Cerny Brothers have successfully created a new sound for their music which originally was acoustic, folk elements to a more electric rock style.  All the while, they have captured their folk spirit as it fits so well with their new music. They are premiering a new song, The Kid which is off their upcoming album, Sleeping Giant. Robert Cerny explains about the song, “This is a song about remembering who you are, how you grew up and what you were taught, and not losing sight of that in a different place with different people. It’s also about the strange notion of struggle, and that a lot of people don’t like to confront it, especially in a professional sense.  I felt like as a band we were supposed to go to meetings with people who wanted to work with us, look nice and pretend that the journey that got us in a that business meeting in the first place was easy.  But it was hard.  It all wraps up in the idea that I came [Read More]
