Swamp Dogg, L.C. Franke
Swamp Dogg is an artist so original, he coined his own genre – or so he claims. “Swamp music” is R&B, heavy on the funk, with an extra helping of soul and a hearty side of experimentation. The original D-O-double-G made a name for himself writing country and blues music before adopting his Swamp Dogg moniker and character in the 1970s. He’s since amassed a cult following behind his soulfully irreverent, socially conscious lyrics and his refusal to slow down or be categorized. Make it a whole Swamp Dogg spectacular and catch a showing of the new documentary Swamp Dogg Gets His Pool Painted, opening Friday at AFS Cinema.

KLKT first anniversary w/ Gran Moreno, Adrian Quesada (DJ set), James McMurtry, more
Two things Austinites love: community radio and neighboring small towns. Radio Lockhart 107.9 FM checks both boxes with this event, which celebrates the first anniversary of our southern neighbors’ 100% volunteer-driven station. Commemorative merch, a photo booth, and a birthday cake mark the occasion, which features performances by Americana singer-songwriter James McMurtry and psych duo Gran Moreno plus DJ sets by Hippie Scum, Adrian Quesada, and Giant Hornets From Japan. $15 advance tickets go up to $20 at the door. – Carys AndersonSun., June 1, 6pm. $15 advance, $20 door. -

Drive-By Truckers, Deer Tick, Thelma & the Sleaze
Three decades and 2,500 gigs deep, Drive-By Truckers still pull no punches, mixing front-porch brutality and political fury into a live experience that hits like gospel soaked in gasoline. Fresh off Patterson Hood’s first solo album in 12 years (Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams), the Southern rockers bring their “Charm & Decadence” tour to Stubb’s, co-headlining with Deer Tick’s unruly folk-punk swagger. Nashville’s Thelma and the Sleaze open with equal parts sludge, strut, and sweat-soaked swagger. Expect a night where truth, distortion, and heart collide in three distinct voices of the American underground. – Tim StegallSun., June 1, 6:30pm -

ILLfest Day 3 w/ Liquid Stranger, ALLEYCVT, That Mexican OT, Sully, Gentlemens Club, Benda, more
Back to test local seismographs, music and street art celebration iLLfest looks to rattle the Capitol. Producing big, brash dubstep with elements of jungle, trance, and trap, PEEKABOO arrives with anthems like “Babatunde” and his latest, “leaving (dont tell me).” Tape B brings heavy nostalgia, reimagining classic hip-hop into festival smashes. Wooli’s dark melodic bass is reminiscent of Flux Pavilion’s early work. In an interesting fusion, Dallas rapper BigXthaPlug (breakout hit “Mmhmm”) and Bay City lyricist That Mexican OT, best known for his 2023 Paul Wall-featured single “Johnny Dang,” will also perform. Belgian drum and bass producer/DJ Netsky comes as this year’s truly legendary figure. – Kahron SpearmanSun., June 1, 3pm -
