Austin Sound

We’ve had the week to recover and return to the real world after SXSW, but this is Austin, so even after the last week’s whirlwind, there is still a ton of live music not to be missed going on this weekend. Get back on your horse, boy, because this weekend the Dicks reunion hits Red River, there’s an ideal local lineup Antone’s, some country and soul shaded shows on Saturday, and some experimental goodness on tap for your Sunday comedown. Here it is, your weekend preview, “still is still movin’” post-SXSW edition!

Ah, love is in the air. It’s Valentine’s Day Weekend (consider this your friendly reminder), but no need to worry - we’re still jaded and cynical and bitter. Luckily, we’ve got you covered for your weekend music plans no matter which end of the Valentine’s spectrum you fall on. Friday’s hot ticket is DJ Spooky at the Mohawk, but also some stellar alternatives in the form of Alejandro Escovedo (if you got tickets, cause it’s Sold Out) and Golden Bear’s EP release. Saturday, the White Ghost Shivers unload their annual Valentine’s Day Massacre, but there’s also some more stellar Hip-Hop with a lineup of local all stars at the Parish, and Sunday we’ll climax as Sunset delivers it’s new 7″.
