Austin Sketch Squad Presents: The Lowbrow Monster Mash
Sat. 10/13 | 7:00PM @ Lowbrow Emporium
1 Person Like this Event. I Like It share
The Austin Sketch Squad ( austinsketchsquad.blogspot.com) is a collective of local artists who issue weekly challenges to each other to produce drawings based on a randomly assigned topic. Past entries have centered around bats, zombies, and werewolves, so it’s no surprise the Squad would pool their talents for Halloween: The Lowbrow Monster Mash features horror-themed art from the group served up alongside the Lowbrow Emporium’s eclectic selection of toys, collectibles, and skateboards, aided by Lone Star beer and music from DJ Zonabi. We’d say something like it’s bound to be “spook-tacular,” but then we’d have to kill ourselves.
Those who think the do-it-yourself aesthetic can’t work in the end should acquaint themselves with Two Gallants. The San Francisco duo formed in 2002 and began booking shows wherever they could (and setting up outside subway stations whenever they couldn’t). 2004’s well-received The Throes caught the attention of celebrated Nebraska indie label Saddle Creek, which put out last year’s What the Toll Tells, a gripping collection of art-damaged murder ballads and gentle, eerie folk. The duo kept busy this summer by touring, releasing an EP and a self-titled album, and going back to the Houston venue where a fight broke out last October between the band and a police officer investigating a noise complaint. (Two G’s drummer Tyson Vogel was among the arrested, but charges were eventually dropped). Opener Blitzen Trapper’s take on Pavement-esque indie rock snagged the band a contract with Sub Pop, and the mostly justified hype behind the recent Wild Mountain Nation is steadily mounting.
