Austin, Texas: Is live music alive & well?

Recommended Posts

My buddies & myself (who live outside of Texas) want to visit Austin, Texas, for the good live music. They claim Texas never shut-down music, and is currently open for business regarding live music. Can I please hear from any of you musicians who play live in Texas (especially Austin): Is live music alive and well in Austin, Texas?

Ludwig van Beethoven:  “To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.”

My Rig: Yamaha MOXF8 (used mostly for acoustic piano voices); Motion Sound KP-612SX & SL-512;  Apple iPad Pro (5th Gen, M1 chip);  Apple MacBook Pro 2021 (M1 Max chip).

Here is his reply. Just for perspective this is coming from a 23 year old. He is also a great guitar player and is in a band in Austin as well.

 

"There's still live music, but it's not as popping as it was pre-covid. Might get better over the summer since everyone is getting vaccinated"
