    Nine Mile Records anniversary w/ Sweet Spirit, Go Fever, the Deer, Night Glitter (DJ set) [garage]

    Weathering 15 years as an indie record label – no small feat in the first place. Then tack on surviving the hammer blow of the pandemic and it’s no wonder Nine Mile Records founder Rick Pierik’s counting his blessings. “I couldn’t be more grateful,” says Pierik. “It’s weird to reflect on that many years because when you’re in the trenches, the time is just clicking by. I was on a freight train and, suddenly, the world stopped during the pandemic, and I had a chance to look out the window of the freight train and look at all the ground I’d covered, and I was kind of amazed at what it was. It has not been a straightforward path.” Along the way, Nine Mile’s nurtured some of ATX’s most exciting acts, nine of which will play at the label’s three night anniversary celebration at Empire. Sweet Spirit, Go Fever, and the Deer join forces for Saturday; and Sunday’s finale sees the reunion of local singer-songwriter supergroup Glorietta with support from Greyhounds and Buffalo Hunt. A hodgepodge of genres – involving punk to funk, folk to soul, pop to rock – but Pierik insists they share a commonality. “The thing that excites me the most about music and musicians is performance,” says Pierik. “Everyone playing this weekend is [playing] because I saw them live and I was just blown away.”

    10th anniversary show w/ Vincent Neil Emerson, Mayeux & Broussard, Dan Whitaker & the Shinebenders, Dave Insley

    The White Horse’s dance floor now bears one decade worth of boot scuffs and some of the East Sixth venue’s perennial favorites are helping it mark the occasion: Tate Mayeux of local cosmic swamp duo Mayeux & Broussard defected for the East Coast, but will be returning home for the show. Continuing the White Horse’s reputation as a favorite among locals and weekenders alike, the bill also includes Chicago jazz-country fusionists Dan Whitaker & the Shinebenders, plus East Texas native Vincent Neil Emerson, who’ll no doubt play “White Horse Saloon”: “I’m headed down to the White Horse Saloon/I’m gonna drink my fill/ I got no time to kill.”
