What’s Going On: 04/16 – 04/23
1. Goat w/ Holy Wave
Where: Wonder Ballroom
How Much: $20
When: Wednesday, April 16th – 8pm
Why: Swedish psychedelic collective, Goat, is kind of the whole package when it comes to their live performance. One of the highlights of Austin Psych Fest last year, from their elaborate costumes they wear to the experimental fusion they play. Currently on tour with Austin’s Holy Wave, a psych-pop rock’n’roll outfit, prepare for liftoff.
2. Wild Ones w/ Summer Cannibals & TeenSpot
Where: Doug Fir
How Much: $10/$12
When: Saturday, April 19th – 9pm
Why: My oh my, what a billing! With a penchant for catchy indie-rock tunes, Wild Ones never disappoint. Joining them are Summer Cannibals, a strong contender for best new band with their straight up and down rock’n’roll and TeenSpot, the power-punk supergroup featuring members of Your Rival, Spookies, the Shaky Hands, and Paper Brain. *Update: Wild Ones had to cancel due to a family emergency, but And And And have stepped in to fill the void!*
3. Cosmonauts w/ Wooden Indian Burial Ground
Where: The Know
How Much: $5
When: Sunday, April 20th – 8pm
Why: Hailing from Orange County, although these dudes are laid back, their shows are anything but. Surf-psychedelia with a garage-punk attitude, Cosmonauts put on fun, energetic shows that will leave you looking like a hot mess with a stupid grin on your face. Who knows, you might even see the Easter bunny there! *Update: Cosmonauts will no longer be playing this show.*
