    Blues on the Green w/ Grupo Fantasma, Colombian all-stars (Beto Cartagena, Edwin "El Indio" Hernandez, Damian Bossio), Kalu James, Amalia Mondragon, Trevor Nealon, Tomar Williams, Gina Chavez, Alex Marrero, Third Root, Money Chicha

    After a shortened 2021 calendar due to COVID-19, much-loved outdoor concert tradition Blues on the Green resurrects gigs intended for last summer. Austin’s Grammy-winning, funk-infused, cumbia orchestra Grupo Fantasma hosts a crazily expanded revue-style rundown with the Colombian Gaita All-Stars. The encyclopedic swirl of locally made Latin, psychedelic, and hip-hop influences brings in Money Chicha, Gina Chavez, Third Root, Kalu James, Alex Marrero, Tomar Williams, and Trevor Nealon – as well as El Paso’s Amalia Mondragón, who has recorded with Chicha/Black Pumas’ Adrian Quesada.

    Puscifer

    “It’s been six years since Puscifer’s toured. Six years. I’ve gotten COVID four times. Four. I’m fine.”: So states Maynard James Keenan following a week of jet-lag recovery from Tool’s European tour. The frontman joins rehearsal for Puscifer’s long-awaited Existential Reckoning tour, kicking off June 9 in Las Vegas. The art-rock trio’s fourth studio album takes a deep dive into society’s treacherous value of entertainment over information.: “A lot of the stuff on the record was reflective of things that preceded the pandemic,” he explains. “Surely some of that stuff seeped in, but for the most part, those observations are just my perception of the world as it progresses. That’s kind of what we do as artists.”: “Bedlamite,” the final track on 2020’s Existential Reckoning, graciously offers us a hopeful note: “‘Remarkable resilience through calamity/ It’s gonna be all right.’”: “It’s a pendulum, these changes we go through … that’s why we think it might never end,” says Keenan. “But we are part of this marvel, and that balance will be struck.”: The singer looks forward to his return to Austin, a familiar haunt from his days stationed at Ft. Hood.: “I would imagine if I were to explore more of the sprawl, it might seem different,” he acknowledges. “I know that there’s better coffee now than there used to be back in 1985.”
