Country meets pop meets indie rock meets twists and turns in Bare Jr. Bare and his band will do double duty. The band has an Austin City Limits Festival set in the afternoon and then will drive south to play songs from Bare's various CDs. Chris Masterson, part of Bare's band (and a member of Son Volt) also will do some songs. And don't get there late because openers The Bitter Spills make some very cool music. The duo from Minneapolis, on the road with a CD called "Folksong Favorites," has a repertoire that finds originals bumping up against selections from Leadbelly, Mississippi John Hurt and ZZ Top. When The Bitter Spills sing and play them, the newest songs in the set sound as if they're from the '20 and '30s. The Mescaleros do their San Antonio rock/blues for happy hour in the Café.
