Psychedelic surf/garage trio The Escatones return to Texas to celebrate the recently released "The Ghost of High Island", apparently named after High Island, Texas, a town known for its supernatural haunts. The Tulsa and Stillwater, Oklahoma (via Galveston & Houston, TX and Detroit, MI) based rockers return to Texas to perform a series of shows, which includes a night in Austin with The Cocker SpanielsThe Rich Hands (San Antonio, TX), and Mad Comrades  Sunday, September 23rd at Red Eyed Fly.

After releasing a split EP with Darwin's Finches in April of this year, The Escatones released "Live From High Island" (HomeSkool Rekordz), featuring an eclectic mix of 60s psychedelic, surf, and garage rock, now available on iTunes. The Escatones have been busy, making live appearances at music venues throughout the mid-west US, and on radio and TV, including a June appearance in "The Garage" on WOAI Channel 4 (NBC): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgYVZyUbM_8. Expect a lively set of psychedelic and surf rock sounds – and the possibility an awesome cover of a song by Texas rock icons The Judys. 
"Crunk rocker" Sean Padilla performs insightful and (body) moving autobiographical songs solo as The Cocker Spaniels.

San Antonio, Texas based youthful yet old school soulful garage rockers The Rich Hands are currently recording new music, and playing spirited shows across Texas, and return to Austin to support their favorite surf rock band from Oklahoma. 

Opening folk/punk duo Mad Comrades are the yin and yang of indie rock in Austin.  

Doors open at 7pm, and live music starts at 8pm. Cover: $5 adults/$8 minors
