What with Weezer and Counting Crows rolling through Dallas last week, we’ve been happily riding the 90s-throwback-wave. And we can’t imagine a better way to top it off than with Garbage’s 20th Anniversary Tour, in which Shirley Manson & co. will be performing their seminal record in in its entirety. Here’s the announcement video:

Fall 2015 has smiled kindly upon East L.A.’s Los Lobos. In addition to debuting their first album since 2010, the Grammy-award winning band has snagged a nomination for the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It’s a well-deserved nod, as proven by this White House performance back in 2009:

It’s been a heck of a season at ’til Midnight at the Nasher. And with the weather finally becoming just a little bit kinder, we’ll certainly be missing this fantastically free, outdoor event. So join Salim Nourallah and The Cush at the Nasher Sculpture Center this Friday for one last hurrah:
No tickets needed. Cheers.

Everyone’s favorite folky-red head is passing through Dallas this weekend with special guest Andrew Belle. We caught up with Brett Dennen in 2011 for a back-alley On the Road Session. No, really — we filmed it in the alley next to the Granada Theater:
