Aaron Watson at Cooper’s in Christoval
Friday night, Amarillo native Aaron Watson will take his chart-topping country music to Cooper’s BBQ. His most recent album “Cover Girl” was released in 2023, and it’s sure to be a packed house, so get your tickets now.
Blues-Rock at the House of DuBois
Boom Chank, known for their distinctive blues rock sound, kicks off the weekend at Fifi’s. The Austin-based two-piece guitar-and-drum combo was born out of necessity when Brannen Temple and Hadden Sayers were unable to find a bass player for a concert. One reviewer described the duo as “A cross between The White Stripes and Ry Cooder.”
You can find their music on Spotify.
