Live music night featuring the Andrew Duplantis Band and We Are Blood Bays at the historic Hole in the Wall venue.
Andrew Duplantis Band and We Are Blood Bays play Hole in the Wall on Tuesday, August 18, with music starting at 6 PM. It's a double bill on a Tuesday night, and the venue is presenting it themselves.
If you've spent any time around the campus area, you know the spot. Hole in the Wall opened in 1974 as a folkie hangout and a favorite stage for Townes Van Zandt, Nanci Griffith, and Blaze Foley. Over the years it shifted toward punk, cosmic country, and alternative, launching the careers of Timbuk3, Fastball, Spoon, and Shakey Graves. It's a historic two-stage dive with a collective capacity of a couple hundred, and it still features live music every night. It's long served as a proving ground for new bands, though it briefly shuttered in 2002 and came dangerously close to being priced out in 2015. It's still here, and it's still doing what it's always done: giving local acts a place to play.
