Being Dead Live at Sonny’s Porch

They pulled up in a van, left like rockstars.

Sonny’s Porch has always been about community, ever since our first band squeezed onto the tiny stage at our Cocoa Beach home/office back in 2015. Since then, it’s been our way of welcoming friends, family, and under-the-radar musicians into our world. This time, it was Being Dead’s turn.

The Austin trio—bassist Nicole, drummer Schmoofy, and guitarist/vocalist Falcon Bitch—pulled up in their “private jet” (aka a trusty Econoline van), and left like rockstars.

Being Dead Live at Sonny’s Porch

We put our CMO to work alongside our Cocoa Beach crew lugging the famous yellow couch to the porch, and after a perfect beach afternoon, and some grub next door from Surfinista, we settled in for one of those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it nights that end up living in your head forever. Between the band’s easy chemistry (they can finish each other’s sentences) and Falcon’s filmmaker-sharp stage presence, the whole thing felt like lightning in a bottle.

Every Sonny’s Porch show is our favorite but this one’s going to be a night to remember for a long, long time. Watch and see why.

Earlier this month, we packed up our cowboy boots and a ten-gallon hat (OK, so we borrowed them from a friend), and headed out to Austin, TX for its annual SXSW festival.
