Junior Brown, American Graveyard
Antone's, Saturday, Jan 12
Junior Brown supposedly envisioned his trademark guit-steel in a dream, a plausible origin given that the double-necked hybrid is an ungodly beast combining all that’s razor-sharp and right in the instrumental world. Even more impressive is his wielding of the axe, with blistering honky-tonk fretwork that’s matched his deep country baritone for more than two decades. Locals American Graveyard open with their own high-octane assault on Americana. – Doug Freeman


The Sword/Yellow Fever
Emo's, Saturday, Jan 12

Yellow Fever
by Sandy Carson
Pitting local trio Yellow Fever’s psych strum against the firebranded metal of Red River-born the Sword yields a good fight, the former gliding on an infectious EP and 7-inch and the latter emerging from hibernation on November’s split 12-inch with Sweden’s Witchcraft. Inside, Fever’s local support comes via Mutating Meltdown’s menagerie of bass, keys, and beats, plus the sweet pop glow of the Hunnies and Bear Claw’s mellow acoustics, while outside, the Roller lays waste before the Sword. – Doug Freeman


All in the Golden Afternoon, the Bronze Age
Mohawk, Saturday, Jan 12

All in the Golden Afternoon
by Aubrey Edwards
Austin bliss-pop wafts downwind; headliners Transona Five and the Theater Fire stoke it.


The Iguanas
Continental Club, Saturday, Jan 12

Jazz and swamp rock radiate from the Plastic Silver 9 Volt Heart. Not so Weary Boy Mario Matteoli opens.
