Ripplefest After Party with Thunderosa, Red Beard Wall and Sons of Gulliver

Thunderosa headline the Ripplefest After Party at The Far Out Lounge & Stage on Monday, September 21, with Red Beard Wall and Sons of Gulliver opening. It's a Monday night show, and the bill is built around Thunderosa, an Austin band that's been around since 1998. They've put out six albums over the years, and they've done it all without record label support.

If you're not familiar with them, the way they describe their own sound gives you a pretty good idea of what to expect. They call themselves a "heavy 70s mind-melting genius rock and speed boogie machine," and the music backs that up. It's a mix of heavy blues, speedrock, stoner rock, honky tonk, punk, and what they call "sacred traditions." That's a wide net to cast, but it's the kind of variety that makes sense when you're playing a long set on a Monday night.

Red Beard Wall and Sons of Gulliver round out the lineup, so the night starts well before the headliner takes the stage. The whole thing kicks off at 7 PM at The Far Out Lounge & Stage, 8504 S Congress Ave, in South Austin.
