"Polly Jean meets Chan Marshal in a major blues meltdown." That pretty much describes Lipkin (a.k.a DD Dagger’s) mix of simple guitar licks, sultry vox, and songwriting style- steeped in powerchords and blues scales. As for the players in the Easies- they too got soul. Bassist Jeff Linton hails from Detroit and finds solace in the blues sound of the 50’s. Kevin Hoyas, guitar, enjoys that Garage music of the 60’s- The Kinks, The Who, The Flamin’ Groovies....and because Kevin works at Waterloo Records he sees his fair share of what’s old & new. As for Drummer Kory Cook - he’s an amazing talent playing everything from garage to jazz - and he’s also the assistant program director at KUT - Austin’s National Public Radio affiliate. What do these players have in common? The desire to rock it and fill their lives with music and performance.
ACL rocked, but there is NO time to rest... Art Outside starts Friday!
Featuring musicians like Wine and Revolution, Suzanna Choffel, Freq Nasty and 62 other acts across three stages, over 100 visual artists ranging from photographers to jewelry-designers, film shorts by Austin Underground Film Society, on-site yoga and acrobatic training, DIY craft demos, fashion show by Rene Geneva, fire dancing performances and much more, Art Outside is an unforgettable, full-sensory art adventure. Art Outside also makes a special effort to reach out to families, and will offer interactive earth-friendly projects, storytelling, and a variety of arts and crafts workshops for children at this year's event.
Since its inception in 2004, Art Outside presented this year by Art Seen Alliance has played a significant role in shaping Texas' vibrant art and music community. By moving creative works from inside gallery walls to an outdoor setting with open sky and wild environs, Art Outside challenges guests to rethink the way they view art, fostering an environment where no genre is off-limits, no medium left unexplored.
