Cut Throat Finches

Cut Throat Finches play the AT&T Performing Arts Center on Thursday, October 8, opening for Counting Crows. It's part of the Patio Sessions, the center's autumn outdoor concert series that brings DFW artists into the heart of the Dallas Arts District. The music is outdoors, and the night includes food from Flora Cantina, drinks, and lawn games alongside the set.

Cut Throat Finches are a Fort Worth indie rock outfit whose sound has drifted toward alt-country, trading in twang-tinged guitars and open-road rhythms. Their fifth studio release, High Horse, deepens that Texas-rooted identity, blending state-bred storytelling with the grit and energy that first put them on the map. The band is a duo: Sean Russell on vocals and guitar, and Draya Ruse on drums.

As a Fort Worth band playing in the Dallas Arts District, they're crossing the Metroplex for this one. They'll be sharing the bill with Counting Crows, so they're the opening act of the evening. The show starts at 5:30 PM, and it's free with an RSVP. You can find the details and reserve your spot at attpac.org.
