Artz Rib House
Texas Old Time Fiddlers Jam
7:30
Old Time Fiddle

 

Beerland
Mutators, Modern Creatures, Total Abuse
9:30
Experimental, Glam Punk
Vancouver’s Mutators shatter any preconceptions of our northerly brethren while shattering some ear drums. Fellow Vancouvanucks Modern Creatures utilize a bit more song structure, but equal parts screeching.

 

Broken Spoke
Bo Porter & The Dixie Rockits

Country, Twangabilly
Revved up versions of classic classic-country.

 

Continental Club
Frogleg, Ephraim Owens Experience

Donn’s Depot
Donn & The Station Masters
Piano
Yep, that’s the same Donn behind the piano as the one with the name on the sign. With his own permanent gig since 1972, Donn and company have played every song you know all the words to.

 

Elephant Room
Jon Blondell Quartet
9:30 / Free
Jazz

In-demand session musician for anyone and everyone in Austin, trombonist Jon Blondell is your standard jazz encyclopedia with a Dennis the Menace curiosity.

 

Flipnotics Coffeespace
Erik Hokkanen’s Laboratory
8:00 / Free
Swing, Gypsy, Surf, Country
This should be the first set to which Austinites take out-of-towners to demonstrate the sickenly mad range of musical talent this town has to offer. In a tiny coffeehouse room on a Tuesday night, Hokkanen leads one of the most jaw-dropping sets of music in the country.

 

Ginny’s Little Longhorn
Jim Stringer
8:00
Country, Hillbilly Jazz
Killer diller guitar a la Hank Thompson, Chet Atkins, Merle Travis, Joe Maphis. Know those names and you know this ain’t child’s play. We’re talking serious guitar monster here.

 

Headhunters
Only in Vowels, Telephone & Telegraph, Nude L.N.
Hard Rock, Country Rock
9:00
College Station’s Only in Vowels simply go for broke, bordering on metal. L.A.s T&T bring the same attitude to country rock.

 

Hole in the Wall
The Bread, Clyde & Clem’s Whiskey Business, Roger Wallace
9:00 / Free
Punk, Rock, Bluegrass
Punk and bluegrass go together like whiskey and bread. The Bread, far from stale, offer a new generation’s take on ‘90s Seattle grunge. Clyde & Clem howl drunkenly like the old timers done before TV. Or at least, how the crazy-coot uncle nobody would own up to howled before TV.

 

Lucky’s Lounge
Boombox w/ Carlos Sosa
10:00
Hip Hop, Funk
Funkin’ horns, drivin’ beats, show-stealin’ MCs and hip-hop overlords. All in one band? That be BoomBox.

 

Momo’s
Bukka Allen, Sally Allen, La Tampiquena
8:00 / $5
Americana, Cosmic Country
Bukka Allen (Terry Allen’s son) inspires with otherworldly Americana. Late night romp with La Tampiquena follows the continued experiment of cosmic country, where “that redneck done married a hippie” is a normal, good-natured ribbing.

 

Opal Divine’s
That Damned Band
8:00
Psychedelic Americana
Accordion-led, over-the-edge tin-pan-alley outfit solicited the remark “who is that damned band” enough times for the moniker to stick.

 

The Parlor
Girls With Vices
9:00 / Free
Folk, Singer Songwriter

 

Red Eyed Fly
Modern Day Escape
10:00
Modern Rock
Tight, hard riffs flirting with hardcore, but never far enough to leave the realm of radio ready.

 

Saxon Pub
Bruce Hughes, Corb Lund
9:00 / $5
Roots Rock, Soul
Longtime Scabs and Resentments bassist Bruce Hughes is leading one of the hottest sets in town right now (featuring Scrappy Jud Newcomb, Mark Addison, and Harmoni). This is a crew of busy, in-many-bands musicians, so get on it while it lasts, weekly at the Saxon, 9 pm.

 

Speakeasy
Mike Maven & The Good Life
9:30
Rock, Soul
