KXT 91.7 Presents Lucero

Friday, November 2
The Rustic
Free event with RSVP! 

Memphis country-punk rock ensemble Lucero has been making music together for a long time — this year marking their 20th anniversary as a band. The band’s ninth studio album, Among the Ghosts, features Lucero’s distinctive sound with songs about family as well as their Southern heritage. Touring their new album, the Memphis boys of alt-country will be coming through Dallas for this free show with RSVP!

 

KXT 91.7 Presents The Record Company

Saturday, November 3
Granada Theater
Get tickets here. 

Perhaps by now, The Record Company’s story is a well-known one: a trio of musicians grit it out on their own for years in bars and clubs, join forces in LA, set up some microphones in a living room and cut an album that turned their world upside down. Released in 2016, Give It Back To You spawned three Top-Ten hits at Triple-A radio stations across the country, earned the band a slew of festival appearances and sold-out headline dates around the world and even garnered a GRAMMY nomination. Catch them at this historic Dallas venue, with openers Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear!

And check out our interview with the band here.

 

KXT 91.7 Presents Dawes

Join these beloved folk rockers for an exciting night of two full sets at this Deep Ellum venue.

They’ll perform in downtown Dallas with special guests The Districts.

Her latest album, Wanderer, draws on the singer’s state of consciousness and her idea that as humans, we’re all wandering for our life purpose.
