Now that most of the SXSW artists have left Texas, we have a slower week for concerts, but there are still some great shows to catch. Houstonist caught The Black Angels and VietNam in Austin this past weekend, and we're glad to hear that they (along with Flowers to Hide) are making a stop at Warehouse Live on Wednesday.
The Westheimer Street Festival is this Saturday, with several dozen local acts on the roster. We'll tell you more about the festival later, but it starts at noon at different indoor and outdoor venues near Westheimer and Taft. For those who prefer a little more twang in their festivals, catch the 4th Annual MDA Crawfish Boil & Music Festival, featuring many Texas country acts, including Wade Bowen and Honeybrowne.
