    Wild Seeds, Ugly Beats

    Wild Seeds, led by singer-songwriter-cum-music journalist Michael Hall, emerged at the forefront of the New Sincerity movement in 1984 with a roots rock sound bolstered by Hall’s angst-ridden, Lou Reed-inspired songwriting. Only Hall could have come up with a delightful skewering of stupid macho cock-rock with the perfect title, “I’m Sorry, I Can’t Rock You All Night Long.” This Friday night, we see them shudder back to life temporarily at the ABGB, accompanied in battle by the Ugly Beats, Austin’s long-running kings of Sixties-style garage rock.

      Bigg Robb, Peterson Brothers Band

      With ample sauce in his game to justify the extra Gs and Bs in his name – hell, give him a third of each – Bigg Robb remains a showman’s showman. The dapper, booty-lovin’ ladies’ man with a penchant for sequined suits and talk box singing came up in Ohio institution Zapp, going solo after the immaculate family band ended in a shocking murder-suicide. Since 2000, Bigg Robb has maintained a relentless discography of character-driven Southern soul that sets up his engaging live show. Brotherly Bastrop guitar & bass wrecking crew Peterson Brothers burn it down first.
