SHOW: Our Last Daze, Junkbunny, Blue collar Boi
Dec

SHOW: Our Last Daze, Junkbunny, Blue collar Boi

It's pretty rare that there's a pop-punk/emo/hardcore show in Lockhart, and we can't wait to go back to our roots! Join us for a great show December 21st with @ourlastdaze, @junkbunny, and Blue Collar Boi! Sweep your bangs over and let's go!

Our Last Daze: Forged from the burgeoning music scene of Central Texas, Our Last Daze is a dynamic and ever evolving force to be reckoned with. Powerful instrumentation shifting from heavy to poppy to soulful, accompanied by catchy vocal melodies with emotive lyrical themes of the debauchery of youth and the existential dread that follows, Our Last Daze is reminiscent of the mid-2000’s Emo/Pop-Punk scene.

JunkBunny: Combining hardcore hooks with a reverence for early 2000s pop-punk, JunkBunny’s sound is anthemically massive while still retaining emotional resonance. Compromised of Mac Johnson (Guitar/Vocals), Isaac Moore (Drums), and Seth Reissig (Bass), the Austin-based trio is releasing their debut album Starting Over on May 3rd before hitting the road. Balancing gigs at gritty dive bars with amphitheaters alongside legendary acts like ZZ Top and Jon Bon Jovi, JunkBunny’s emergence has been as swift and visceral as the sounds they continue laboring over in an underground Austin Studio.

Blue Collar Bois: Just two bois makin’ music

Doors 7 | Show 8 | $10

SHOW: Killer Kaya + Jenny and the Jetts

Join us for a night of sweet, sweet rock & roll.

Friday Nov 22nd at 8pm [doors at 7pm] • $10 cover

“It’s been two years…but Killer Kaya is finally back. Their already-rich psych-rock sound is now complemented by an incorporation of synths as well as the addition of die-hard, adrenaline-drenched drummer Justin Kass. These changes’ll come into play on Killer Kaya’s upcoming LP Tunnel at the End of the Light (out October 7th) as heard on one of Tunnel‘s most exciting singles, “Seasons of Unrest”. Like the effects-heavy, falsetto-fueled wrath of an angry God, “Seasons of Unrest” paints a dramatic picture of existential dread over California climate patterns in an operatic prog-rock original that lands somewhere between Santana, Mars Volta, and The Doors.” - KUTX

Plus welcome back local favorites Jenny and the Jetts!

SHOW: Days of Summer & Batty Jr.

Join us for a night of super fun music with Days of Summer and Batty Jr!

Days of Summer: Hailing from Austin, TX (with a good dose of nomadic wandering), Days of Summer is the inner child folk rock songwriting of Angela Greco. With the help of her bandmates, Days of Summer produces heartfelt songs with strong melody, experimental instrumentation, and narrative color - designed to feel both fresh and familiar, like a good friendship. You never know what instrument or voice will pop up. Listen with curiosity and love.

 

We've been compared to Cat Power, The Sundays, Belle & Sebastian, Carole King + The Smiths, The Cranberries, Big Thief <3, and Yo La Tengo. We can push our sets more in the rock direction or reside in the gentle, lapping waters of folk.

Batty Jr.: A good dose of fun rock & roll with an experimental twist! The real question is…ARE YOU A BAT?

SHOW: LASSO + Jennifer Jane Nicely Trio

Join us for a night of beautiful music!

Saturday November 9th at 8pm • $10 cover [doors at 7pm]

On the heels of her stunning new album release, Not LostJennifer Jane Niceley and her mystical country quartet are traveling the back roads to the best haunts that remain. With her transcendent songs and enigmatic band, it can be hard for heady folks to “genrify” and classify the sound; for those who’d rather float away on the frequency, this music is a balm to the soul. Featuring Feathered Mason on baritone guitar, Jason Goforth on pedal steel and ambient harmonica, Clint Mullican on electric bass and Robert Crawford on Drums. 

LASSO are a collective of trans-dimensional multi-instrumentalists based on planet Earth in the city of Austin, TX, testing the limits of both spacetime and genre with psychedelic gusto. Their 2022 eponymous debut orbits somewhere at the astronomical midpoint of German experimentalists Tangerine Dream and honky tonk legend Hank Williams. LASSO deliver a rocking twang drenched in psychedelic shimmer, launching your favorite dusty beer joint clean through the stratosphere on a venture to uncharted galaxies with Lone Star in hand.
