Josh Baca and the Hot Tamales perform live at the intimate venue Sam's Town Point in Austin.
Josh Baca and the Hot Tamales play Sam's Town Point on Friday, July 24, with the show starting at 8 PM. It's a single-bill night, so they're the only act on the program.
If you haven't spent much time out south, the venue itself is part of the draw. Sam's Town Point is tucked away in a wooded neighborhood beyond Slaughter and Manchaca, camouflaged by the trees and hidden from view. For a long time, it was considered the south pole of Austin's musical axis—the city's least visible stage—but lately it's emerged as a happening scene in its own right. It's the kind of spot that feels like a local secret, and that's a good way to describe the night: a single band playing a room that's finally getting its due.
