Big Foot Chester, Chickenhawk, Chris Gavito and DJ Romeo Viejo at Salute Intl. Bar, Friday March 30th
Big Foot Chester, Chickenhawk, DJ Romeo Viejo
I’ll never feel sorrier for the G.I.G. than this Friday — its next-door neighbor Saluté is having one of its loudest and most evil nights ever. If G.I.G. owner Ruben Garcia is not reinforcing the walls, maybe he should. Taco Land favorite Big Foot Chester, which hasn’t set foot in San Antonio in 10 years, is coming back with a vengeance and a lineup that includes Walter Daniels on harp, original guitarists Bill Anderson (Churchwood) and Davy Jones (Hickoids), and a rhythm section of Rice Moorehead on bass and Hard Feelings veteran Trey Robles on drums. In case this mega-dose of punk blues isn’t wicked enough for you, wait till you see the opening act, Chickenhawk (pictured), named after the David Allan Coe classic. The trio is making its local debut and they’re an absolute nightmare, starting with their press photos (dead deer on the wall, and three shotguns aimed at you). They’re guitarist/vocalist Spider Mike (ex Double Clutch), bassist Patrick McManis (Boxcar Satan and Evil Mothers), and drummer Gentleman Brad Turner (In and Outlaws), and they’re taking no prisoners. Enter at your own risk. $5, 9pm, Saluté International Bar, 2801 N St. Mary’s, 21 & over, (210) 732-5307.

Purple Stickpin with The Dixie Hammers at The Mix, Friday March 30th
Purple Stickpin
T. Tex Edwards gets around. From Austin by way of Dallas, with stops in between including California, Edwards started shocking eardrums and entertaining generations of edge-dancing music aficionados with the Dallas punk band the Nerve-breakers.
A singer, songwriter and frontman who has a way with a crowd, Edwards has long been able to wrap music and the truth in a package that's fun and dangerous. Edwards and his cohorts mixed country, punk and roots rock long before it was cool.
With bands including Out on Parole, The Loafin' Hyenas, The Swingin' Cornflake Killers, Tex and the Saddletramps and the Big D Ramblers, and a mind-boggling parade of collaborators from Hickoids to roots stalwarts including drummers Mike Buck and Freddie “Steady” Krc and pedal steel player Marty Muse, Edwards has cranked out a long string of songs designed to make people think, laugh and shiver. The man also is a serious music fan. Follow him on Twitter (@ttexmusic) and he'll hip you to enough cool links to help you stay lost on the Internet for hours at a time.
A new CD, “Intexicated!” (Saustex Media) is a collection of Edwards' oddities, demos and more. The 19-track disc includes “Lee Harvey,” Leon Payne's “Psycho '84,” the Kinks' “Death of a Clown” and “If Looks Could Kill.” The disc closes with “Chili's Demo,” an ode to babyback ribs.
Friday, Edwards will bring his new band, Purple Stickpin, to The Mix on a bill with Dixie Hammers. Purple Stickpin, represented on “Intexicated” by “Baby's Got a Gun,” also includes the considerable talent of multi-instrumentalist Danny Hoekstra, formerly of Sons of Hercules. No telling exactly what Purple Stickpin will spring on S.A., but that's all part of the fun.

ARTSLAM! at The White Rabbit, Saturday March 31st
Some of our fondest memories as kids were from being at some old arcade, wasting Ma and Pops quarters on some 8-bit goodness. The smell of sweaty, teenage palms, and the sound loose change. The team-building skills we learned from playing TMNT or X-MEN, even The Simpson’s classic arcade games with groups of people we had never met. Those were the days… And we miss them.(read more...)

"If sensitive singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith had grown up in this once sleepy hippy haven and seen Townes Van Zandt on his best and worst nights, this might be the kind of record he'd make."
-- Austin-American Statesman
"Sexton carves out landscapes that alternate between pure pop and seemingly unfinished tone poems. He devises sultry sonic backdrops for his lyrics of desire and pain that recall Chuck Prophet or Ron Sexsmith -- a singer-songwriter on the edge."
-- Austin Chronicle
(Austin, TX – March 23, 2012) Will Sexton, whose writing credits range from work with Waylon Jennings and Stephen Stills to Joe Ely and Bill Carter, is shaped by the unique diversity of the Austin music scene. Fate and his own sheer talent placed him on stage with local legends before he’d lived out his first decade. Will and his big brother, Charlie, started playing together at the Continental Club when Will was 9 and Charlie was 11. Many of the sounds of his childhood still resonate in his current work. Will received early success in Austin and was signed by MCA at age 16. He has survived in the tough Austin music scene by playing gigs with a variety of notable artists. It is never unusual to go out to catch a show featuring an Austin singer/songwriter and see Will onstage.
Will’s credits as producer and songwriter range from collaborations with Waylon Jennings to psychedelic pioneer Roky Erikson to Steve Earle and punk legend Johnny Thunders. Will has written for MCA and Almo Irving and recorded for MCA, A&M, and Zoo Entertainment. Will was in the New Folk Underground with David Baerwald, which resulted in the co-produced (w/ David Kitay) Lost Highway release Here Comes the New Folk Underground. Will names Terry Allen and Sheryl Crow hitmaker David Baerwald among his favorite writing partners. 2009 marked the completion of new production credits, including Randy Weeks’ Going My Way, and Ruby James’ CD, Happy Now, co-produced with his brother Charlie Sexton. Will also enjoys performing with Charlie Faye, Sahara Smith and more.
Will has amassed an impressive collection of songs over the years, releasing his first independent album, Scenes From Nowhere, in 2001, which received a four-star review and was honored in the Top 5 Releases of 2001 by the Austin American-Statesman. Bus Stop Gossip, a previously unreleased recording from 2004, was unearthed and released in 2009 and was followed up by Move the Balance in 2010.
Things came to a temporary halt in December 2009 when Will suffered a mild stroke. Though he had a remarkable recovery, he was unable to remember much of the music he had written and played almost daily as a working musician. For him to be unable to connect with those songs mentally since the stroke was a setback few musicians could even imagine. The Austin music community has always been known for taking care of its own and came out in full force for a music benefit in honor of one of Austin’s golden sons to raise money for Will’s living expenses and medical bills. While Will was working through the recovery process, Move The Balance was released two months later without much notice and to very little fanfare. This is an album not to be overlooked. It includes eleven new songs recorded by Mark Hallman and Andre Moran in twenty-two hours at Congress House studios in South Austin. Musicians on the CD include Will Sexton on vocals, guitar and bass, Mike Thompson on piano, guitar and trombone, Bukka Allen on B3 and accordion, Dony Wynn on drums and percussion, Ray Bonneville on harmonica, and Bill Carter on additional bass. Additional guest vocals were provided by Mark Hallman, Ruby “Red” James, Charlie Faye and Nöelle Hampton.
