Harry & Emmy
Emily Whetstone writes buoyant confessionals as Van Mary and Harrison Anderson brings psychedelic rhythms to SMiiLE, but the indie rockers moonlight as sad cowboys in the country duo Harry and Emmy. Drawling slow songs of desire, the pair – while without an official studio release – make the most of the live scene with original songs and covers of local favorites like contemporaries Pelvis Wrestley and legend Townes Van Zandt. Tuesday’s free, front bar gig marks a return to the band’s favorite stage; last year, a livestream performance raised funds for Hole in the Wall when COVID-19 shut it down.Tue., Aug. 17, 9pm -

Austin Central Library: Fagilee/Siwaju/Tunto
Austin's own Akirash presents his newest sculptural installation at the Austin Central Library. "As I built these mini grocery stores," says the artist, "I thought of the relationships we build and how Covid is pulling them down brick by brick. I thought of the hands and souls have touched the packages and mourned some of them who passed. The colors were arranged to invoke the ceaseless news and information flow on social media and the internet; the day-to-day report on the progress of finding a cure; of how many people are affected, infected, surviving, or dying all around the world; and the statistics of economies failing."Through Sept. 10 -

Beyond Van Gogh
This traveling spectacle of art, a multimedia exhibition currently ensconced at the COTA, uses cutting-edge projection technology to create an engaging journey into the world of Vincent Van Gogh. Repurposing the artist's dreams, his thoughts, and his words to drive the experience as a narrative, this huge installation will move you along projection-swathed walls wrapped in light, colour, and shapes that swirl, dance and refocus into flowers, cafes and landscapes. As a certain Dude might comment, "This is extremely fuckin' trippy, man." Make your reservations now, citizen, and if the price seems a bit steep, hell, you can probably tap your brother Theo for a loaner, amirite?Through Sept. 5. Daily, 11am-9pm. $37 ($24, children). -

Davis Gallery: Flora and Fauna
Right, so we're crazy excited about this show, because 1) we're all about the flora and the fauna; 2) the show includes new pieces by that relatively unsung genius of arcane sculptural work, Steve Brudniak; and 3) this is a group exhibition "focused on the depth and variety of Davis Gallery's family of artists." Yes! And if you don't already know how impressive, how basically aesthetically badass, that diversity of makers is, citizen, then this "Flora and Fauna" gig will be the perfect introduction for you.Through Sept. 25 -
