Friendship ft. Little Mazarn
Head to Hotel Vegas on Austin's vibrant East 6th for an intimate night of indie rock and alt-country magic with Friendship featuring the enchanting Little Mazarn!
Philadelphia's Friendship brings their latest Merge Records gem, Caveman Wakes Up—a swirling blend of shambolic guitars, flute pads, Motown grooves, and Dan Wriggins' ragged baritone delivering bleary poetry perfect for dreamlike drifts or haunted roadhouse loitering. Tracks like "Betty Ford" (with its wild drum solo nod to Jerry Garcia) and "Tree of Heaven" capture profound sincerity amid experimentation, earning raves as one of indie rock's most assured releases.
Opening is local fave Little Mazarn, adding their unique folk vibes to this 21+ inside show kicking off at 7pm. It's music for sleeping, waking, walking, and everything in between—not ideal for dinner, but killer for a night out!
- Doors: 7pm
- 21+ event
- Indie country-rock at its most capacious and creative
