Music

SoulhatSoulhat at Antone's
July 25, 2009.  One of the greatest and most successful bands to ever come out of Austin, Texas is Soulhat.  Made up of drummer, Frosty Barry Smith,  Brian Walsh on bass, the guitars of Kevin Mckinney and Billy Cassis,  the band became a main stay in Austin and had great success here and throughout the country. After recordings and a very successful career touring and playing, the band took on various individual projects.  Occasionally we are lucky enough at Antone's to get them together for a reunion show. Antone's is honored that they are getting together to do a real and traditional Soulhat show for their Anniversary on July 25, 2009.  This is going to be a rare and very special Reunion Event! ...more info
