Ah, we hate to see these guys go. We’ve been following and impressed by Peel from the beginning, and the band even kicked off our first Austin Sound compilation. The local pop slackers, though, are transforming into a new era as Josh Permenter heads off to San Francisco, where he’ll presumably hook up with fellow Tone Wheel Collective member and recent Bay area transplant Mark David Ashworth. Dakota Smith and Allison Moore will still be around, however, and working on other projects. At least they’re going to go out with the same laid back, communal attitude that they emerged from, playing their final show at Bill Baird’s new Baby Blue studio in East Austin (1522 East 12th St.). We assume, like the old Big Orange shows, this is a BYBO, sit on the floor kind of deal. Also helping Peel say goodbye are Baird’s phenomenal Sunset, and the song and dance darlings Little Stolen Moments. Party kicks off at 9:00pm.

sorry to see these guys go! they put on some great shows.
Lucky for us, Peel is giving away a bunch of free music of theirs. Check their myspace for links to free Peel downloads.
Thanks for the heads up Ajay! It should also be noted that at the show, Allison and Dakota declared that this wouldn’t quite be the end of Peel, as they will likely push forward in some form or another and are still working with Peek-A-Boo. Losing Permenter to San Fran, though, is certainly a disappointment.
