in reply to: Austin, TX Live Music Calendar
Looking forward to my first show as an Austin, TX resident tonight at Antone’s. Fittingly the show is Susto, a band from Charleston who I have followed and covered since the earliest days of Extra Chill.
Happy to be in Austin and looking forward to meeting more people in the scene here.

in forum: AustinFor the past few months, I’ve been working on an events calendar that can automatically aggregate every (at least that is the broad goal) event in a given city.
Austin of course is a huge city and has so many music venues so it is challenging to get everything. But we have gotten a solid collection here and it will only get more robust over time.
See the link to our events calendar below which has the goal of being a comprehensive automated listing of live music in Austin, TX that lists...

in forum: Music DiscussionProducer, engineer, and songwriter, Mossberg Montana, just a released “God Made A Way For Me” featuring a handful of #GxldApproved emcees such as Mez (of TwinFlamez) Big D, and Mike Burna. The song is an ode to unwavering faith in God and the confidence manifested by his acknowledgment. A powerful message to stay steady in your faith and walk with the assurance that you are ‘covered’. Paired with the track is a “cinematically cooked’ visual shot by one of Charlestons videography...

in forum: Music DiscussionKendrick with the surprise album drop for the win! He really took over this 4th quarter of the year. I’m not even reviewing the album because you ALREADY KNOW it’s FIRE! Kung Fu Kenny addressed the Super Bowl, his final words on the Drake beef, but mainly makes it clear that it’s him against the world and he’s found peace with that because the world is in a dark space. A multitude of sounds. Excellent features. Sample game stupid. Every word intentional. GNX. Hmph

I’ve still been digging the song “Wristwatch” from this record, and today I decided to do a lyrical analysis and explore the song’s meaning.
If you also like MJ Lenderman’s “Wristwatch” and want to know what it’s about then check out my article here.

in reply to: High Water 2025Here’s the bit from Kalyn’s interview with Shovels & Rope for the Post & Courier where they discussed leaving High Water Festival:
Why Did Shovels & Rope Leave High Water Festival?
One way in which the business has shifted has to do with the music festival circuit. While Hearst and Trent never owned High Water Festival, they helped create it and were an integral part of artist curation for the annual showcase at North Charleston’s Riverfront Park. Earlier this year, they announced they’d be stepping away from the event put on by Live Nation.
“We tried to make the environment a certain way and there was a sweet spot,” said Trent. “But unfortunately, just the state of the music festival business is what it is and isn’t something we want to be involved with anymore.”
Hearst added that it got so big, costs ballooned and it stopped reflecting their values. As far as they know, though, the festival will go on next year without them.
“I would love to see Live Nation, as awesome as they are when we work with them, that monopoly busted up,” added Hearst. “There are local independent venues like the Pour House, which we love, struggling against this mega corporation. And every single one of us has to do business with them.”
While they help support “some of the greatest stagehands” and other talented and much-needed workers across the industry, Hearst said she’d love to see a more “naturally capitalistic and competitive situation” in Charleston, especially.
“Our city is really small, but it’s got big culture and big tourism … and it’s disproportionately talented,” she said. “There’s some incredible art, incredible young people doing incredible things. We want to see that scene continue to thrive.”...

This wasn’t a widely publicized interview and it was buried at the end.
in reply to: High Water 2025What happened to S & R?? Could’ve tossed in a few small-print locals. Great big headliners tho. Will definitely draw a crowd. 🚦🚦🚦 Hope no rain
