About This Podcast

Lockhart, known as the "Barbecue Capitol of Texas" is a small town south of Austin. In recent years it has become a haven for musicians, artists and the best kind of weirdos. Some were born here and some got on 183 and headed south as fast as they could. This is a podcast that will celebrate the growing talent in this town and beyond and tell you where they are playing next. Whether you are a local, transplant, or just need a soundtrack to go with your brisket, all our welcome. 

...and don't forget to tip the band!
