C3 Presents: Black Joe Lewis w/ Jonathan Tyler &The Northern Lights, & The ape shits

The blues-hollerin’ Black Joe Lewis may have the wounded soul of Wilson Pickett and the showmanship of James Brown, but the young Austinite’s roots are in gangsta rap and punk, which actually works in his favor. While the more established bluesmen in this town are so robotically proficient with their instruments that their music has all the raw power of a Michael McDonald song, Lewis’ primitive playing gets to the heart of the music, harkening back to the days of self-taught pioneers like Lightnin’ Hopkins.

The sweeping range and contorted vocal fluctuations of J.C. King on Hello Lovers’ debut EP, Vanity Fair, become gilded on new LP Gone With the Wind (Sixgunlover), delivering drama atop lush strings. Austin’s Faith Delphi sets the stage with delicate, dreamy, lo-fi accordion folk and myriad unlikely percussion, along with Knife in the Water frontman Aaron Blount slicing solo. – Doug Freeman

Only Church of the Friendly Ghost could produce a night of Texas noise this diverse. Via Denton, duo Zanzibar Snails unfurls the drone, and quartet Stumptone draws out warm waves of psych from latest LP Gravity Suddenly Released. More vibrations come courtesy of mysterious local guitar-drum duo Bulbs and Oakland electro duo Wave & Particle. Shawn David McMillen reaches into his bag of tricks to christen this night of aural projection. – Audra Schroeder
