Band of Heathens

Where: Puccini's Golden West Saloon

Date: 2008-01-12 20:00:00

Type:

Originally conceived as a loosely-knit collective showcasing four of Austin's best up-and-coming artists, The Band Of Heathens quickly discovered that something special happened when they played together. Each artist has a unique voice, but there is also an amazing group voice of the whole band. Known for their dramatic live show that easily switch gears from Classic Country to Progressive Folk to Americana and R&B, they immediately became an Austin favorite, winning the Best New Band award in 2006/2007. "I saw Band of Heathens in one of their early pre-band collective nights and was blown away. We invited them to be our 100th and final house concert. They put on a rollicking good stripped down show. We are looking forward to having them back with a chance to really rock out in a club." - neal $15 advance, $20 day of show Tickets available at abqmusic.com, Bookworks and Natural Sound
