Hooton Tennis Club is coming into Austin with quite a buzz. Featured on a heap of “Bands to Watch” lists (we featured them in the SXSW Independent Bloggers Guide) and playing almost as many showcases, the band is poised to come out of Austin with some serious buzz. We asked them what they’re most excited to see in Austin this year and got some great recommendations — from music to comedy to full showcases. Check out what the boys of Hooton Tennis Club are gonna be seeing in Austin below, and be sure to take time out of your schedule to see them play!
