Scabs
When:7/3/2009
We'll get started with a rare Austin appearance from Austin's premiere X-rated funk band, The Scabs. Bob Schneider's long-running side project mostly plays holiday weekends these days, and almost always at Antone's, so it makes sense you can open your July fourth weekend with the Scabs Friday night at Antone's. Bring your out-of-town guests to show em' Antone's, but leave the faint at heart and easily offended at home.

Jack Ingram
When:7/4/2009
Austin's own Jack Ingram has another top-20 Billboard country hit in Barefoot & Crazy - a track from his forthcoming album. The Eli Young Band have been in and out of the top-20 for a few months. Both Ingram and The Eli Young Band will play the Whitewater River Amphitheatre in New Braunfels on Saturday for a big Fourth of July show that ought to be a popular post-river-float destination.

Fastball; Carolyn Wonderland
When:7/4/2009
If you're looking to stay closer to home for July Fourth, Antone's has a strong double-bill: Fastball, back from the road, where they've been supporting the well-review new album Little White Lies, will co-headline an evening with Carolyn Wonderland. A hard-working platinum-selling pop band. A bona fide blues siren. A little for everyone, Saturday at Antone's.
