Were you aware that the Dandy Warhols were still touring? I wasn’t… If this makes you all happy inside, head to Emo’s for a set by the band who rose to fame in the late 90s. Opening support will be provided by Spindrift.

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Austin band The Drawing Board so we’re excited to see that they are returning to the stage at Mohawk tonight. Joining in for the evening are fellow locals St. David and The Ashes. Not sure of ticket price but it should be pretty cheap.

I hope you’ve heard that indie radio station Woxy is making a move to Austin and plans to start broadcasting and setting up live sessions in the live music capitol. We couldn’t be more excited to welcome the crew to town! To celebrate their arrival, the station is putting on one hell of a party at Scoot Inn on Sunday evening. The lineup features up and comers Black Before Red, English Teeth, TV Torso, and Martin Crane of Brazos. You can also expect some sweet drink specials and BBQ, Sweet Leaf Tea, and Titos Vodka. Sunday evening never looked so promising.

Last night our newest photographer Mary Rehak stopped by the Mohawk for an incredible set by Fruit Bats, Death Vessel and local band The Low Lows. From the looks of these pictures, the show must have been a great one. Follow the jump for a pictorial experience of the show.

I was just a wee youngling when British glam rockers The Cult got their start, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate some throw back 80s rock. So if you’re into that sort of thing, make your way to Stubbs on Saturday night for the experience. Once the headlining set wraps up, head indoors for a free show (if you keep your Cult ticket) by local Austin boys Scorpion Child. That picture alone should make you want to check this one out.

Friday night at Scoot Inn is a great place to stop by if you’re looking for some great local upstart acts. The Lineup includes some of our more recent local favorites Brothers & Sisters, The Low Lows, Mr. Lewis and The Funeral 5, and The Sideshow Tragedy. Can’t get much better than that!

We really dig that new Fruit Bats record so we are of course excited for their stop in town Wednesday night at Mohawk. Fellow Sub Pop and ATH fave Death Vessel will provide main support with locals The Low Lows starting things off. Best show of the week? Damn this song is really good…

Many of you might have got caught in the rain this past Thursday evening, but Mother Nature decided to take a breather by the time Vicious, L.A.X., and Canadian DJ duo Thunderheist hit the stage. We all know that Emo’s (outdoors) can often feel like a sweltering sauna, but the humidity didn’t stop concertgoers from making good use of their dancing shoes. Luckily, there was room to breathe so you never felt overcome with claustrophobia as you milled around the venue avoiding puddles. Follow the jump to hear our thoughts.

San Francisco band Sleepy Sun have made their way to Austin and are getting down at Mohawk on Tuesday night. Opening support will be provided by Headdress, The Delta Mirrors, and our fellow local rockers Ringo Deathstarr. Should be a fun way to start your week off right.

How can you not want to go see the 73 year old dub-reggae master get his groove on at Flamingo Cantina? Let’s face it, if you like reggae, and I do, you need to get stepping to see Lee Scratch Perry. Dr. Dubbist will also be in attendance. Perry produced the following song, which is one of my all time faves, so if you love it, see you Tuesday night.
