Los Angeles rockers OFF! headline the first night of the 13th’s Floor first anniversary celebration. Jake Garcia of the Black Angels relocated his venue to the 711 Red River space, formerly the Green Jay and Beerland, last September. The successful move netted the Austin Music Award for Best New Club at this year’s ceremony.

Jim Campo writes rock & roll choruses worthy of Wembley Stadium, although 75 people screaming along in a small club feels just as perfect. The brilliance is in his economy of words. Check out the sneering, get-away-from-me power pop anthem “I Wanna Be Everywhere You’re Not” and the hook of gentle grunge fan favorite “Words in a Bin” (“You don’t miss me ’cause you don’t miss nothing”), both impeccable sing-alongs. Each of those songs is on Magic Rockers of Texas’ new album Life’s a Bowl of Cherries… and All I Got Was Stems! – releasing Friday with a Hotel Vegas blowout alongside Otis Wilkins, Gold Leather, and Gummy Fang.
