    Black History Month celebration w/ Alesia Lani

    Among the Austin Public Library’s storytelling segments and spoken-word workshops, this year’s Black History Month celebration spotlights the melodic R&B cohesion of Alesia Lani. Velvet vocals ebb and flow between thudding basslines on her 2023 sophomore album Self-Titled, where Lani’s neo-soul meets heartfelt lyricism. A funk-fueled force to be reckoned with, “I Don’t Mind” piles stark harmonies against infectious grooves. The nine-track project also features notable collaborations, like the electric-addled “Breaking Me Down” with Jackie Venson and the beat-driven, piano-accented “Big Shot” with Magna Carda. Lani’s library performance is free and open to the public. – Miranda Garza

    We Take Care of Our Own: A Benefit for Our Friend, Markus

    If you’ve ever been to Austin’s original goth club, you’ve probably spent your night under the watchful eye of Markus, the venue’s head of security. Tragically, he has been diagnosed with cancer, and now the community he’s guarded is coming together to look after him with a special, star-filled fundraiser of Elysium regulars, including Jurgen Engler of industrilegends Die Krupps, Chant’s driving force Bradley Bills, Austin’s own godfather of darkwave, Curse Mackey, and the Majical Power, the new collaboration between Black Angels guitarist Jake Garcia and his business partner/drummer for the Ripe, Nick Yaklin. – Richard Whittaker

    Twin Peaks Day party w/ Caleb Landry Jones, Bookhouse Boys (members of Queen Serene & Fading Yellow), Middle Mass, Lauren Lakis

    Diane, 8pm, February 24. Entering the town of Twin Peaks. On the fateful day that Special Agent Dale Cooper began his investigation into the death of Laura Palmer, indulge in cocktails, coffee, and donuts, then catch performances by Lauren Lakis, Middle Mass, members of Queen Serene and Fading Yellow (dubbed here, naturally, the Bookhouse Boys), and Caleb Landry Jones – who played Becky Briggs’ shithead husband Steven Burnett in The Return. Feels So Good pops up with Lynch-worshipping merch, and Raphael Umscheid, EL DRIPCUTS, and TV EYE provide appropriately spooky visuals. Isn’t it too dreamy? – Carys Anderson
