Twice The Awesome

By: Laurie Gallardo

Okay, this is a lot. But how could the Austin Music Minute pass it all up?

You have a busy Thursday night ahead with two AMM-recommended live stream shows:

-You want your Waltzer TV. Waltzer (Chicago-based songwriter and musician Sophie Sputnik) plays host to a huge live stream event that just so happens to feature a lot of familiar faces in Austin music. It’s Waltzer TV Episode III, starring Boo Baby, Star Parks, Uncle Sexy and The Nephews, Carman A.D., Woes, Sir Woman, Sweet Spirit, Sun June, The Deer, Kaycie Satterfield, Horti, The Well, Moving Panoramas, Greyhounds and…holy hell. It’s Puddles Pity Party, making an appearance. What?! The live stream extravaganza kicks off at 8 p.m. (Central) tonight, Thursday August 13, on Facebook Live.

-Best front row seat in the house – your house. Stepping up to represent with the 2020 Black Fret Couch Session, a live stream show featuring Black Fret nominee Darkbird and recent KUTX Artist of the Month Jake Lloyd. Both are on – fire. Watch the show at 8 p.m. (Central) tonight, coming to you from the stage of 3Ten ACL Live on Facebook Live, and you can watch it again this Saturday, August 15, on Black Fret’s YouTube channel.

Please don’t forget to show your support for your favorite band(s). Buy their merch, or kindly request any Venmo or PayPal information for donations. And thank you, from your Austin Music Minute maven.

What’s Yr Damage

Following the breakup of their previous psych-gaze band Creepoid, Anna and Patrick Troxell forged an electro post-punk dynamic as the duo Lovelorn. And now the ATX-by-way-of Philly outfit is ramping things up with two new additions to the line-up, guitarists Steve Pike and Kyle Harris. No doubt extra shreds will add even more discordant dimensions […]
