“It wasn’t as romantic as it
sounds though,” continued
June. “It’s pretty funny because
we were both so tired from all
of the traveling, by the time we
got to Paris we had driven about
four hours, and I had to drag her

The couple has been thinking about moving out of Austin
and starting somewhere new. In
the past decade, the rising cost
of living in the city has made it

musicians arriving with a dream
of making it big. The influx has
completely oversaturated the local music scene.
