Bill Carter & the Blame
“From the great city of Austin, Texas,” sure sounded sweet coming from David Letterman as he introduced local songwriting rogue Bill Carter last Thursday on The Late Show. Performing “Anything Made of Paper,” from both the West of Memphis soundtrack and his new disc Unknown, Carter hosted on slide guitar his friend Johnny Depp, who not coincidentally sat at the right hand of Letterman. Recall Carter, Depp, and the Butthole Surfers’ Gibby Haynes in onetime Austin Music Awards supergroup P, and note that this pen-for-hire (SRV, Waylon Jennings) boasts an upcoming AMA set.

JD McPherson
Signs and Signifiers, JD McPherson’s 2012 debut, blew a hole in the soul of roots-rock lovers everywhere. The Okie’s sound comes from a deep appreciation of Fifties R&B, yet he manages to break new ground with lyrics speaking of today, straddling the line between forward-looking and retro. McPherson’s also had the good sense to add his local friends, the like-minded Bellfuries, to the bill. Excellent new deep country disc Mighty Lonesome Man in tow, the enigmatic James “Slim” Hand opens. See Earache! blog for more with McPherson. – Jim Caligiuri
