Walker Lukens has stayed busy creating for his new “ADULTs Only” record subscription club where fans can sign up and get exclusive content created during this downtime. 86-year-old Mexican-American singer, multi-instrumentalist, arranger and composer Manuel “Cowboy” Donley has often been referred to as the “Godfather of Tejano music.” Based in Austin but recognized nationally, Donley led a big band Latin orchestra in the 1950s and assumed the nickname after stepping out from behind the podium and carrying his guitar to the front of the stage “like a cowboy”. Watch the full interview below. Manuel “Cowboy” Donley passed away on June 28, 2020 of natural causes. If there was ever a 21st-century renaissance man, it’s got to be Terry Allen. Back in the before times (is this what we’re calling it?)
They have a 10 song EP due out later this year, but in the meantime you can check out one of their three other releases, including a collaboration with singer/guitarist/effects master Chris Lopez entitled Chippr Jones – Christ Lopez [split].
Despite only releasing one print recording from his long career. Earlier this year Donley received the 2014 National Heritage Fellowship lifetime achievement award, the nation’s highest honor in the folk and traditional arts by the National Endowment for the Arts. 86-year-old Mexican-American singer, multi-instrumentalist, arranger and composer Manuel “Cowboy” Donley has often been referred to as the “Godfather of Tejano music.” Based in Austin but recognized nationally, Donley led a big band Latin orchestra in the 1950s and assumed the nickname after stepping out from behind the podium and carrying his guitar to the front of the stage “like a cowboy”. Vocalist and chief songwriter Lindsey Mackin has a knack for writing lyrics just surreal enough to keep you looking over your shoulder to make sure that wall behind you isn’t really breathing.

Rufus doesn’t care. With Unfollow the Rules, Rufus brings it back to his Californian pop roots for an album of all the things I love about Rufus – piano, harmonies, sweeping strings, and OMG that voice! Equal parts indie-rock, psych rock, and raw uncut soul, with a healthy smattering of smooth jazz, gospel, and world music. I’m pretty sure I haven’t taken any LSD today, but listening to Austin’s Annabelle Chairlegs makes me wonder. But these aren’t epic psych-rock freakouts stretching into the outer galaxies of consciousness, these are quick spins around our own solar system crammed into a 3-minute package of delightfully spaced out surf rock. And, where can I get some more? Playlist. You can hear some of Donley’s recordings from our own Studio 1A and catch live performances some Tuesday evenings at El Gallo restaurant on South Congress Avenue. But I think strategically it actually ended up being a wise move because I didn’t get sick of either.”. You’d be in the ballpark for the new album, Darling Destroyer, by Austin’s Leopold and his Fiction. some musicians are working up all kinds of ways to keep their skills sharp. Use this calendar to find out when to tune in to KUTX 98.9 to hear theses sessions. Throw in Carson McHone’s sultry low harmonies and Baum’s clever lyrics and you’ve got a consummate Austin band worthy of a second, third, and fourth listen. Writing songs since the early age of 11 and performing almost continuously for years, James Hand started releasing music in 1999. They’re such a perfect representation of Austin’s Outlaw Country history and hip indie culture that it’s hard to believe front-man Corey Baum (aka Bad Boy Croy) hails from northwestern Ohio. Couple her lilting melodies with the intriguing and dynamic beats that back her up, and we have a hard time understanding why she’s not headlining major festivals.

For obvious reasons the release was pushed to July 10, 2020, requiring us to keep these beautiful videos under wraps. a multitude of things were different. Austin trio The Boxing Lesson delivered an operatic and unrelenting wall of sound with "Endless Possibilities." The new record, Hatteras Night, A Good Luck Charm leans a little more country than some of his other records but isn’t a huge departure from previous work with a band. Not all of our sessions are live on air. About his temporary departure from his usual pop he says, “I highly recommend to any musician or artist to have a kind of dual art form or parallel track that they can skip over to because inevitably they end up informing each other. Together, the two shaped a sound that draws straight from the essence of Austin music. He works in all sorts of medium, including musical and theatrical performances, sculpture, painting, drawing and video, and installations which combine all of the above. The album centers on the Upper Big Branch coal mine explosion that killed twenty-nine men in that state in 2010, making it one of the worst mining disasters in American history. Crystal clear guitar sounds and heartfelt organ licks play double duty on their recent album “Hey Come Back,” at some times towing the country line, and playing the Austin indie rock card at others. Where the hell did they come from? ( Log Out / ( Log Out / ( Log Out / His music lies firmly in the tradition of Texas country music, but over his 12 studio releases he’s only gotten better. Like, what the hell is it? The magic started when newly minted Austinite and immensely talented vocalist Trey Privott joined forces with multi-instrumentalist/arranger John Courtney.

If there was ever a 21st-century renaissance man, it’s got to be Terry Allen.We at KUTX are most familiar with his long and storied career as a pioneer of the Outlaw Country genre in the 60’s and 70’s, but Allen has an equal if not greater standing in the contemporary art world. Writing songs since the early age of 11 and performing almost continuously for years, James Hand started releasing music in 1999. Fans of Austin-based low-fi king Will Johnson were left in a bit tough spot at the end of 2014 after the famously prolific songwriter announced he would no longer be performing with his long-running musical projects Centro-Matic and South San Gabriel. Not even 2 years into their musical career and Los Coast managed to secure a semi-permanent residency at the influential South Congress club C-Boys and landed an opening spot at the 2016 ACL Music Festival. We needed a breather after this one! ©2017 KUT / Design and development by KUT/KUTX, Tipit LLC, and Elon & Company. Want to be there in person? And for us Will Johnson fans that is just fine. On November 23rd, 2019, the KUTX crew headed to the Paramount Theater to capture an intimate soundcheck and a chat between old friends Rufus Wainwright and Jody Denberg ahead of his Oh Solo Wainwright performance that evening. Drummer Billy Wong, bassist Derek Vaughan Nunez Strahan and guitarist Matt Schweinberg don’t do anything to help my vertigo either. Despite only releasing one print recording from his long career, Adios Chiquita, Donley has popularized the trío romántico and orquestra musical styles, which blend Latin rhythms with mainstream American musical genres such as rock and jazz. Austin trio The Boxing Lesson delivered an operatic and unrelenting wall of sound with “Endless Possibilities.” Fourteen-year-old drum phenom Ben Redman pounded out an vigorous beat while Jaylinn Davidson and Paul Waclawsky breathed life into their instruments with multiple sweeping solos. Aptly named Corona Don’t Touch My Baby, Walker will host a live stream event and benefit for Red River venue Cheer Up Charlies Sunday, May 24 to premiere the video album.

Since then he wrote two operas and put out an album of Shakespearean Sonnets, Take All My Loves, featuring a swath of notable guests like Helena Carter Bonham, Carrie Fisher, and Florence Welch. While some of us are becoming one with our couch and Netflix accounts (and that’s OK!) Chippr Jones makes dynamic music that is easy to get lost in, and even easier to dance to.
