Middle Brother is a trio that features the lead vocalists of Deer Tick, Dawes and Delta Spirit. This week marks a couple of anniversaries in the lives of John McCauley, Taylor Goldsmith and Matt Vasquez. It was this time in 2009 when they all first met. It was a year ago this week when they played their first live gig together. Find out how SxSW factors in to each of these anniversaries.

Learn how they got their name. What to expect from their live shows. Who the heck is Johnny Corndog? And where they fit into the scheme of things in the "Supergroup" spectrum when you listen to this in-studio performance, recorded live in The Current studios

Songs performed: "Day Dreaming," "Thanks For Nothing" and "Middle Brother."
