    On the April Full Moon, come set intentions and indulge in the mesmerizing allure of live acoustic music performed by world-class musicians, surrounded by the warm glow of candlelight. Its a different kind of concert, that begins and ends in darkness, with music and a poem or two surrounding and soothing you. Audience members will be given the choice of bringing their own yoga mats and/or pillows to gaze at the shadows on the ceiling. A circle of chairs will be provided.

    ¡Viva Los Motos 2.0! w/ Red Fang, Municipal Waste, American Sharks, Pocket Fishrmen

    Picture a scene straight out of 1971’s postapocalyptic mash note The Omega Man: After 16 months of raging global pandemic, a bedraggled cluster of survivors living amongst the ruins of a major urban center converge on an OG motocross site out beyond the airport. Before you can say, “Don’t you mean Mad Max?” hundreds of rabid Neanderthals erupt into a man pit under an enormous, Euro-style festival tent as the track roars to life with riders launching two stories in the air while High on Fire spits flames and everyone loses what’s left of their ever-loving minds. Now ongoing thanks to backliners Boss Radio Music Services, a hometown crew manned by drummer Buddy Hachar of medieval ATX metalists Greenbeard, last June’s spectacle returns with DJs, vendors, and never-ending moto launches. Oregonian quick-sludge cryptids Red Fang headline behind fifth disc Arrows, as nervy and distressed as any George Miller film, with spigots manned by Virginian beer thrashers Municipal Waste, and supported by local speed hammerheads American Sharks and Austin legacy punks Pocket Fishrmen.

    Bon Iver, Dijon

    With no new album being pumped at press time, there’s tantalizing uncertainty surrounding the rustic art-pop collective as they prepare for this weekend – only the second stop of a globe-encircling 2022. Considering our tentatively post-pandemic mindset, I’d prepare for a set list stressing the spiritual continuity between the group’s two most expansively communal albums – 2019’s I, I and 2011’s recently reissued self-titled LP, plus a minimum of isolated cabin balladry. Also within the realm of possibility: one of Justin Vernon’s contributions to Taylor Swift’s indie-folk duology. Glistening, vibe-forward neo-soul sensation Dijon opens.

    Fat Gator Music Fest w/ Fredo Bang, Rich Homie Quan, Ying Yang Twins, Beat King, Lil Troy, Nook Turner

    Austin meets the Big Easy (in New Braunfels) at this all-day fest from rapper Nook Turner’s activist/music promotions outfit Jump on It that looks to play on the connection between Central Texas and New Orleans that developed in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, with considerable pockets of transplants settling in the area. Fredo Bang takes the headliner spot from cousin Boosie Badazz, who was slated as the top act for the fest’s original spring 2020 lineup that fell victim to the pandemic. More Louisiana flavor comes from early 2000s crunk heroes Ying Yang Twins. “By far, this is the biggest event we’ve done in over a decade,” Turner said, explaining that attention-grabbing promotions with national headliners are intended to pay the bills and fund Jump on It’s community activism projects. And the name? “Being the fat gator means being dominant in your area and you’re fat because you’re the biggest and the best … a skinny gator is the one who’s not eating.”
