The Scabs w/ The Motts

The Scabs are not only one of the tightest, funkiest R&B revues ever to heat up the stage at Antone’s, Austin’s fabled home of the blues, they’re also undoubtedly the raunchiest. Frontman Bob Schneider — a man who really needs no introduction in the Live Music Capital of the World — allows no opportunity for sexual innuendo, double-entendre or outright ribaldry to go unfulfilled. The result is a riotous dance-party vibe that’ll have you laughing out loud and rolling your eyes while shaking your booty.

Keep the kids away from this band, or make sure their ears are well-plugged! But don’t miss ’em; they will rock you. Schneider just took home the latest of 30 Austin Music Awards in March: Best Male Vocals; Band of the Year, for his more refined project, Lonelyland; and Best Bluegrass, for his Texas Bluegrass Massacre. Clearly, the dude’s got a lot of musical irons in the fire, and all of them are intriguing on different levels. But when it comes to Bob’s wild side, the Scabs are unbeatable.

With The Motts at Antone's on Friday, January 22.
