Austinist Show Preview: Alt Country Showcase Featuring The Lonesome Heroes at Headhunter's

altcountryshowcase_headhunters_nov2006.jpg

The Lonesome Heroes have recently initiated a weekly residency at Headhunter's to showcase Austin’s alt-country offerings. Appropriately titled the Alt Country Showcase, the communion occurs every Wednesday with an agenda to build a practical platform for the genre’s oft-scattered acts and create a unified arena for the emergence of new talent. The latest bill features the country sounds of six piece The Skeletons, as well as Leo Rondeau’s Americana anthems. Supporting will be the Low Down Family String Band, and of course, The Heroes will headline the event with their brand of indie-folk-country. The band aspires to “revolutionize country music in America” as per their MySpace page and we could not be more excited about this development.
