		AUSTIN FRIENDS OF TRADITIONAL MUSIC (AFTM) has been fostering and promoting all genres of traditional music in Austin since 1974 and is glad to be presenting its yearly FESTIVAL, which played to a packed house last year.

		The band has many musical influences from Bill Monroe and the Stanley Brothers to Cajun to Benny Goodman and Django Rheinhart, delivering pleasant and exciting surprises in their supercharged shows that feature the instrumental work, close harmony singing and fresh original material to round off a total Bluegrass experience.

	The Austin music scene: overview (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		You have the factor, as well, that musician's aren't necessarily immune from cover charges (this depends on the club, the owner, the door person, the price of tea in China...) and as such have their own budgetary concerns that can prevent them from hearing their peers perform live.
		Even further, a few musicians (by my guess, a minority) view their music as something that they have to work at -- to the point that they don't interact with other performers, preferring to concentrate on their own work.
		Further, the "performing songwriters" (no one wants to be known as a "singer-songwriter" anymore, for reasons that mainly involve Gilbert O'Sullivan) generally perform under their own names, and so even if the backup musicians are a changing cast, it doesn't mean as much in terms of name recognition.

	The Sound of Austin
		Surrounded by sparkling lakes and rolling hills, Austin is a lush, green oasis with a penchant for the outdoors and a liberal bent.
		Austin's journey to become the Live Music Capital of the World™ began inconspicuously in 1970 as hundreds of pickers, singers and songwriters flocked to this Third Coast haven to nurture a new musical style that some termed progressive country and others labeled outlaw country or redneck rock.
		Around the turn of the millennium, Austin music began to sound decidedly more feminine as The Dixie Chicks, Shawn Colvin and Kelly Willis added their sweet voices to the chorus.

		The musical variety was an incredible hodge-podge of styles that mimicked what was heard on the Top Forty radio stations of the day.
		Of note were the many clubs on Austin's "east side", the real "home of the blues." The IL Club, Victory Grill, and Charlie's Playhouse (where the Jet's held forth) all provided woodshedding opportunities for musicians from the west side.

		The so-called New Sincerity was the perfect prototype of a scene because it was short-lived and overhyped.

		By the late 1920s, Austin clubs such as The Cotton Club were hopping with the modern sounds of jazz.
		Although jazz artists from Austin have played all around the globe, it hasn't always been easy to find a venue for their art in their hometown.
		For example, the disco era prompted many club owners to switch to DJs rather than offering live music because it was "more economical." At times blues and country have dominated the Austin scene, but jazz still percolates to the top and fans can find great jazz if they look.

		The many strains of American roots music were well represented, as well, from the Lee Brothers, a soul-stirring sacred steel act in the spirit of Robert Randolph and the Family Band, to Crooked Still, a young Boston-based neo-trad bluegrass band.
		Schneider made his mark on the music scene as frontman for a few different bands in the ’90s, including Joe Rockhead, funky groove-jammers the Ugly Americans (building a fan base as an opening act for Dave Matthews), and the raucous rock outfit the Scabs (winners of an Austin Music Award for Best Band in ’99).
		Singer-songwriter, musical activist, free spirit, and longtime Taylor player Michelle Shocked dropped by the factory on June 17 and left happy: she had a new 714ce to sub for the 1993 810 recently stolen from her car, and a new Baby Taylor to replace her road-weary one.

	Austin Music Guide -- Resources for musicians and fans (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Fewer venues means fewer paydays for Austin acts; most musicians report making the same or less money now than they did 10 years ago, even as the cost of living locally has doubled.
		With fewer clubs nurturing local talent and fewer musicians with the economic flexibility to concentrate on their music, club owners say their fan base is shrinking.
		To this I would add a reason that's hinted at but not mentioned explicitly: Musicians used to be able to pay the rent with a part-time job and devote a lot more time to practicing and performing.
