Austin Music MinuteHoliday HAAM Jam Album Release and Benefit Show Tonight at Antone’sPardon my enthusiasm, but here's reason one-thousand, four hundred and seventy-five why Austin is so great: We have our house parties, our aftershows, and our jams. The local music peeps know exactly what I'm raving about. At any given time, at practically any location, musicians will select their gear of choice and meet up to play whatever comes to mind, and maybe run ideas by each other. It's spontaneous and all levels of awesome. Today's Austin Music Minute is sort of about a jam, a special one for a great cause. While it may not be as spontaneous, there will be no shortage of fun and good vibes, all about representin' the Health Alliance For Austin Musicians (HAAM).
