From: Austin, Texas

 

Currently in rotation on: 90.5 FM KUT

 

While several Austin artists are poised for a big 2012, Quiet Company seems ready to make serious ripples in the mainstream: Its big, anthemic indie-pop melodies have already turned on TV shows like Keeping Up With the Kardashians and MTV's The Real World. Though its radio-ready songs stand alone, the band's third and most recent record, We Are All Where We Belong, is a concept album of sorts documenting frontman Taylor Muse's journey through early fatherhood and a falling-out with religion. A tour beyond Quiet Company's Texas comfort zone now seems inevitable: It's drawing 30,000 plays per day at Grooveshark, where it's signed an artist development deal; the group's fastest-growing fan bases are in Brazil, Colombia and Germany. —David Brown, KUT
