    Nancy M. Morgan celebration of life Day 1 w/ Wild Healers, Blues in the Night, Jeff & the Jumptones, Larry Harris Band, Mike Morgan

    Down at the end of Menchaca Road, Giddy Ups celebrates the life of Nancy Morgan, the owner who passed away last October. Over the past three decades, Morgan transformed the small neighborhood bar into “the biggest little stage in South Austin,” and nearly 30 of her favorite artists gather to continue the old South Austin vibes. Son Mike Morgan kicks off a bluesy Friday night including Jeff & the Jumptones and Wildhealers), while Kathy & the Kilowatts launch an all-day Saturday capped by the Pearl Snaps and the Bently/Casner Band. Sunday rounds out with Will Knaak joining the Waddell Brothers. – Doug Freeman

    Black Eyes

    Known for immersive post-hardcore punk ruckus fueled by ample percussion, Black Eyes broke up just before their second album arrived in 2004. Following last year’s first shows in two decades, the D.C. act shares an ATX-sourced art rock bill with Wet Dip’s thrashing no wave and Water Damage’s instrumental droning. In a fascinating tie-in, Black Eyes drummer Mike Kanin has been based in Austin for some 15 years, where he plays in Water Damage and runs a sub-label of Astral Spirits Records. That’s not to mention his journalism career, including past roles as publisher of the Texas Observer and Austin Monitor (and Chronicle bylines). The punk publisher posted on Facebook: “That all makes this Austin show a kind of amazing confluence of two very significant parts of my life.” – Rachel Rascoe
