A trio of Austin acts will be ruling the proverbial roost at Stubb's tonight. The indoor show will start off with Jude Ross, followed by Leatherbag, and finally Dana Falconberry. The evening promises a solid set for a low low sticker price -- especially for those who have been finding themselves seduced by the backward looking AM gold stylings of other local acts like Brothers and Sisters.

Leatherbag, in particular, has a tendency to sound like the best bits of your parents' record collection (read more of what we though of Love & Harm here), like that morning when you were 14, and you realized that even if your dad generally seems really, really lame and way too into Steely Dan, he apparently once had a thing for Lou Reed and thank god, because this copy of Transformer is really the only thing making life bearable right now. Dana Falconberry's been making a name for herself as a solo artist -- her 2006 EP included Patty Griffin on piano, and she's become a regular feature at local venues. It's lo-fi folk, sure, but don't expect anything syrupy or whiney. Falconberry can manage intimacy without cheap sentiment.
