There are a few reasons why the folks behind Gutterth Productions are perennial nominees in the Best Music Advocate(s) category of our annual Dallas Observer Music Awards -- the shows they put on, the records they put out, their general fandom of all things local music.
But, surely, this too comes in to play -- the fact that the local booking agency/promotions company/record label, every few years, releases a massive compilation of free music. They first did so back in July of 2008, with Gutterth Compilation One, which introduced area listeners to the likes of Florene and Sunnybrook. Then, in December of 2009, they released Gutterth Compilation Two, which did the same for the likes of Dust Congress and True Widow. (Both are still available as free downloads if you follow those links.)
And, now, Gutterth is prepping to drop its third installment in the series. On March 10, the day that the company hosts its 35 Conferette showcase featuring Nervous Curtains, new Science Projects, The Angelus, Summer of Glaciers and The Heartstring Stranglers, the company will release Gutterth Compilation Three, initially in hard copies that can be picked up at the showcase and then, later, like the others, made available as a free download. After the jump, take a gander at the 38 free songs the folks at Gutterth have compiled for your pleasure this time around
