WOVEN BONES + THE JACUZZI BOYS @ THE RUMBLE AUSTIN TONIGHT

THE RUMBLE: AUSTIN returns tonight to Beerland after taking some time off post-SXSW to recover.

Headlining the party is the amazing WOVEN BONES! Since first hearing 'If You're Gold, I'm Gone", we were hooked on their scuzzy smack.

"It's not that they're the sonic reincarnation of pre-Psychocandy Jesus & Mary Chain mated to the Troggs primordial oomph-ah-arrgh, but rather that they're the absolute essence of garage rock: viscous, vicious, and utterly unforgettable, like a trip inside Russ Meyer's dirty mind circa Mudhoney."- The Austin Chronicle

Miami's JACUZZI BOYS are playing through and drop in on Austin for this party.
"Singer Gabriel employs both hot n' bothered Mick Jaggerisms and Lou Reed's cooler-than-thou tics to bemoan an imperious, noblesse-obliging girlfriend." - Pitchfork

Opening up is OBN III, the Austin trio that I'm told is a 'super group'.

The show is 21+ and is only $5 and is brought to you by Future Sounds, Waterloo Records, The Onion AV Club, The Austinist and Spin Earth.

Beerland is located at 711 Red River

TONIGHT @ BEERLAND - THE RUMBLE: AUSTIN OPENS IT'S DOORS

We've been building our beast in other towns, each one prepping us for the day we got to open our doors to THE RUMBLE in Austin, Texas, the indie rock capitol of the US. At long last - TONIGHT - we are thrilled to bring you THE RUMBLE: AUSTIN @ Beerland.

Austin marks our eighth city in the Rumble circuit, and it's sort of a homecoming in that our family - WOXY - lives and breathes in Austin, and it's home to us every year for SXSW and ACL. Future Sounds and WOXY have teamed up with other like-minded folks like WATERLOO RECORDS, THE AUSTINIST, THE ONION AV CLUB and SPIN EARTH to bring you this monthly party that is always FREE, and always promised to bring you amazing live acts from up-and-comers as well as surprises from time to time.

Headlining this inaugural party is TV TORSO, someone we've been enjoying plenty on the WOXY airwaves with a touch of Spoon and a touch of class in their sound.

Another act we've been following closely from out West, DIRTY DANCING will also perform. This is some dark music, think Tom Waits meets The Bad Seeds. This act could break out because after all, no one puts baby in a corner.

Opening up the Rumble is the youngsters that are making their rounds and creating their own culture - THE HAPPEN-INS. Reminiscent of when The Stones bled old Blues records starting out, The Happen-Ins have had their fair share of nights with their John Lee Hooker records.

The WOXY DJ's will be handling the music, as they always do, between the acts and did we already mention that this party is FREE?

BEERLAND is located at 711 Red River Street
