Austin pop supergroup KVN (“Kevin”) gave immaculate vibes in their June 29th performance at the KUTX Open House.
Fort Worth’s Abraham Alexander has an inspiring yet brutal backstory. A serious artist, but also confident with an affable sense of humor, and brimming with excitement with what lies ahead. His debut album "Sea/Sons" came out in April.
Cilantro Boombox has little regard for the rising temperature of Austin summers. The band is instead using fire to fight fire with their newest single “Little Sign.”
Few Austin artists have done more to support the local music scene than rappers Chaka and Qi Dada. Collectively known as Riders Against the Storm, the husband and wife duo have been on a mission to make Austin a more fun and inclusive city ever since landing here in 2009. Both through their infectious, uplifting brand of hip hop and nonstop activism.
KUTX Presents: The Austin-based Afro-Latin funk/soul outfit proved it's no mere Grupo Fantasma offshoot with the fiery 2008 debut, "Homenaje." The collective pretty much bled its entire soul into this homage to their '70s Latin funk influences, from Fela Kuti to Manu Dibango to Santana. Seeing Brownout unleash this level of fervor at a live show totally sealed the deal. Brownout is a force.
Endless prairies and ocean waves; long drives and highway expanse; dancing, smoke, sex, and physical desire – the core images of Jess Williamson’s new album "Time Ain’t Accidental" revel in the earthly and the carnal.
