Austin Sound Check

Because of Thanksgiving, this week’s show recommendations are a bit thinner than usual. Thankfully (rimshot!) what we’re lacking in quantity, Austin’s local musicians fill with quality.
O’Death is the stand-out roadshow of the week, followed by a hearty line-up of local luminaries like Band of Heathens, Dan Dyer, Suzanna Choffel and The Scabs. If you’ve got family in town for the holiday, be sure to take them to a show. It wouldn’t be an Austin Thanksgiving without a little live music to go with all that fried turkey.
