San Saba County CD Release Party Tonight at The Continental Club

November 20, 2008 6:00 am by: Laurie Gallardo

“Alt. country” was a description used for several different bands that were in tune more with the classic sounds, the roots, of country music. Then the wonderful and talented peeps San Saba County pop in with something to push the envelope a bit further: “post.alt.country.”

It isn’t necessarily anything highbrow or fancy. It’s sort of describing the influence of country roots, but in relation to modern music styles, a strong country influence but with today’s sounds. It’s traditional and it’s indie. Or…whatever it is you want to mean. Labels are boring and limited, anyway, so San Saba County simply hopes you enjoy what they do and have a great time.

They’re having their CD release party tonight at The Continental Club, 1315 S. Congress Ave. Everything should get started around 10 p.m. Afterwards, stick around for more great music by The Georgian Company at 11:15 p.m., and The Black at 12:30 a.m. Cool stuff, baby.
