A Beyond OKlahoma Psychedelic, Post Punk Rock Experience: The Electric Primadonnas, The Escatones, Devour The World, and Shardz @ Skinny's Ballroom, Fri. 3/2, 9pm

Updated Mon. 2/20/12, 10:50 pm

The Electric Primadonnas have evolved into a psychedelic, "freakbeat" garage rock band with a two town residency: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma where they began, and Los Angeles, CA, where one of their co-founding members now resides. But don't think a minor issue like a few thousand miles makes a difference with the musical connection the band continues to make with recordings and live performances. They are joining psychedelic/surf garage rock faves The Escatones on a musical excursion in Texas, which includes performances in Austin, Texas. They'll be playing early at Trailer Space Records, 7pm, then joining Austin-based folk/psych Rycootermelontramp, post punk ponderers Devour The World, and prodigious cellist & soundscape artist Shardz (Joey Reyes of Whale Watch) at Skinny's Ballroom, 9pm.

Legendary Texas space rockers ST 37 highlight an unusual mid-week night of psychedelic, improvisational and experimental rock @ Beerland on Wednesday, November 30, 2011. 

Where to begin?... ST 37 has been rocking the planet since the 80s, and remain stellar.  Miss Moonlight has often been described as a nocturnal psychedelic dream rock goddess.  "The Grateful Dead of improvised electronic music" Space Quake opens, and adventurous prog rock quartet Whale Watch closes the experimental music night's quest with visual accompaniment by Vidkidz. 

  

$5 cover 21+. Doors open at 9:00, with live music starting at 10:00.

The Escatones surf back to Austin! Sun. 10/23 @ Red Eyed Fly

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 Spaniels, The 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

RSVP @ Do512 or Facebook.

Thanks for your consideration of our event. 

Sincerely,

Danna Williams
