Playback For Locals

Hello everyone! We're starting a series of highlighting recurring live events in the great Austin area --- with current pandemic conditions we understand that not everyone may feel comfortable going out, however these events will likely still be in place even as we return back to normalcy! Our first event is Jazz Brunch at Geraldine's every Saturday and Sunday 10 am to 3 pm. This is a wonderful opportunity to both explore one of Austin's finest restaurant but also explore Austin's jazz scene and musicians! We hope everyone can check it out!

Hello! Sorry we've been gone for so long the team has been working through with their own lives, however we're back with the third part of our CoVID series. Unfortunately, CoVID has a took a turn for the worse so it is imperative now more than ever to support local musicians. While we are providing basic news and stats on the impact of CoVID we urge everyone to continue to support artists in any way they can.

Hello! This will be our 2nd post in a 3-part series on CoVID-19's impact on musicians and music related services. Today's posts focuses on the effects that CoVID had on both larger and local venues. Fortunately lots of venues in Austin have been able to bounce back however the pandemic's took it's economic toll on many music venues. We encourage everyone to show their local venues support in any way possible whether this be attending shows and buying tickets or food or just donating in general!
