Variety is the word of the week when it comes to live music in San Antonio.<\/p>\n
Whether your ears crave funky synths, mainstream rock, power-pop, soulful blues or boundary pushing jazz fusion, there\u2019s a bill to sate their desires. Let\u2019s take a look. <\/p>\n
Thursday, Jan. 15<\/strong><\/p>\n Katzu Oso<\/strong><\/p>\n Katzu Oso \u2014 the stage-name of LA solo artist Paul Hernandez \u2014 plays dream-pop mixed with funk, samples and a heaping helping of vintage synth. The schtick isn\u2019t dissimilar to Poolside, whom the act remixed a few years back. Which is to say Katzu Oso has a winning formula \u2014\u00a0one designed to get your hips shaking and singing along in Spanish in your best Prince-style falsetto impression. $21, 8 p.m., Paper Tiger, 2410 N. St. Mary\u2019s St., papertigersatx.com. \u2014 Bill Baird<\/strong><\/p>\n Friday, Jan. 16<\/strong><\/p>\n Everclear<\/strong><\/p>\n Frontman Art Alexakis is bringing Everclear\u2019s post-grunge sounds back to town after a 30th anniversary tour celebrating Sparkle and Fade, the album that held its breakout anthem \u201cSanta Monica.\u201d While it\u2019s a sure bet that song will get prominent play on this tour as well, the good news is that Alexakis likes to dig into the group\u2019s robust catalog for deeper cuts, such as the underrated bop \u201cHeartspark Dollarsign\u201d from the same album. $48-$111, 8 p.m.,Aztec Theatre, 104 N. St. Mary\u2019s, (210) 812-4355, theaztectheatre.com.\u00a0\u2014 Danny Cervantes<\/strong><\/p>\n Honey Bunny, CNMN, 16 the Olympus<\/strong><\/p>\n Alamo City ska-infused party punks Honey Bunny are joining forces with alternative band CNMN and the supremely jazzy and far-out 16 the Olympus to bring you \u201ca psychoactive evening of indie and alternative to bend your minds: local bands, trippy vibes, and a kaleidoscopic night out,\u201d according to the event listing. $14, 8 p.m., Stable Hall, 307 Pearl Pkwy., (210) 427-7464, stablehall.com.\u00a0\u2014 Stephanie Koithan<\/strong><\/p>\n Saturday, Jan. 17<\/strong><\/p>\n New Attractions, Garrett T. Capps, Jack Mitts and the Daylights<\/strong><\/p>\n January is shaping up to be full of strong local lineups, this one included. New Attractions play pleasingly melodic power-pop \u00e0 la early Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Local luminary Garrett T. Capps, playing sans band, will test various strategies for solo performing \u2014\u00a0past shows have featured drum machines, samples and \u201880s-ish keyboard, combined with his newfound fiddling skills. Opener Jack Mitts, formerly of Jibberish, Deer Vibes and other SA outfits, plays smart, tuneful indie-folk. $10, 8 p.m., Lonesome Rose, 2114 N. St. Mary\u2019s St., (210) 455-0233, thelonesomerosesa.com. \u2014\u00a0BB<\/strong><\/p>\n Sunday, Jan. 18<\/strong><\/p>\n Malford Milligan<\/strong><\/p>\n Though relatively unknown outside Central Texas, Malford Milligan has won Best Vocalist in the Austin Music Awards an astounding eight times. As singer of the now-defunct Storyville, Milligan fused blues, soul and a special Austin flavor to create something unique. Raised rural and poor in Texas, Milligan faced the hardships of picking cotton along with ridicule from cruel kids due to his albinism. Music was his way out of that life, and it\u2019s evident in every note he sings. $15, 8 p.m., Gruene Hall, 1281 Gruene Road, New Braunfels, (830) 606-1281,\u00a0gruenehall.com. \u2014 BB<\/strong><\/p>\n Empty Heaven and Friends<\/strong><\/p>\n The stage moniker of erstwhile San Antonian Anthony Sanders, Empty Heaven crafts a unique brew of piano pop, emo, prog and something else hard to define. By turns the music is melodic, dark, humorous and extremely rocking. Fans of blurred genre lines rejoice. $10, 8 p.m., Lonesome Rose, 2114 N. St. Mary\u2019s St., (210) 455-0233, thelonesomerosesa.com. \u2014 BB<\/strong><\/p>\n Monday, Jan. 19<\/strong><\/p>\n Marbin<\/strong><\/p>\n While lots of jazz musicians like to characterize their music as progressive, the group Marbin actually earns the description thanks to its whiplash-inducing jumps between swing, metal shredding, off-kilter funk and more. The band was formed in Israel in 2007 when saxophonist Danny Markovitch and guitarist Dani Rabin met after the latter graduated from the Berklee School of Music. The duo moved to Chicago in 2009, and after assembling a crack rhythm section, has gone on to create an extensive catalog of eight albums, with 2022\u2019s Dirty Horse being their most recent. $25.09, 7:30 p.m., The Starlighter, 1910 Fredericksburg Road, thestarlighter.com. \u2014 DC<\/strong><\/p>\n Subscribe to SA Current newsletters.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Follow us:\u00a0Apple News<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Google News<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0NewsBreak<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Reddit<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Facebook\u00a0<\/a>| Twitter<\/a>\u00a0| Or sign up for our\u00a0RSS Feed<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Related Stories<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\tDespite recent setbacks against the Jazz and Cavaliers, San Antonio remains on pace to return to the playoffs for the first time in six seasons. \t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
