Join us Friday, March 20, for Jonny Tex at the LINE Austin pool.<\/p>\n
Jonny Tex is a Boston band that sounds like it’s from somewhere else. Once a messy country cover act kicked off mid-residency, they\u2019ve reemerged with tight songs, dry humor, and a steadier hand on the wheel. Their music blends earnest absurdism with slacker pop precision and Western undertones, delivered with blunt conviction and more sermon than confession.<\/p>\n
In less than a year, Jonny Tex has opened for Guerrilla Toss, Godcaster, French Cassettes, and The Thing, bringing disciplined yet high-energy sets to rooms like Crystal Ballroom and Brighton Music Hall. Now signed to Austin label Happen Twice, the band is building toward a debut EP out this spring.<\/p>\n
Tex, a former youth pastor in training, writes as someone who mistakes confidence for clarity. The songs are threaded with dry humor and small self-exposures, where Southern gothic imagery meets East Coast restraint. They stay locked in even as the narrator begins to wobble. It\u2019s art rock that sounds certain while quietly questioning itself.<\/p>\n
