    1/13 Tonight brings three bands from Rhode Island, Michigan, and New York to The Ox. Amil Byleckie Band, Prussia, and Drunken Sufis team up with local psychedelic outfits The Extraordinaires and Orbit to Leslie. Word on the street is Tbe Extraordinaires will be showing off a whole bunch of...
  • The Weekly Soundup, October 20-24

    9/20 Tonight at Kung Fu Necktie, welcome Austin trio Woven Bones. Their garage surf sound is a perfect match for Frankie Rose & The Outs and Fishtown favorites Reading Rainbow. No word on if The Necktie will be setting up TVs for the game, but I’m sure you can...
