Three bands, three distinct styles. Friday night at Holy Mountain marked a crash course in Austin eclecticism.

Different as Crooks, Chris Catalena & the Native Americans, and young upstarts the Berkshire Hounds may be, they all come together for a pretty congruent interview. We caught up with the three local crews before each stepped into the Seventh Street venue.
