about
Austin's Home of the Blues for 50 years (and counting) released a boxed set for their anniversary in 2025. Featuring rare, out-of-print, and newly unearthed live and studio recordings from the Antone's archives and a brand-new double LP, The Last Real Texas Blues Album, and an exclusive new Los Lobos 45rpm single. Starring Albert Collins, Gary Clark Jr, Otis Rush, Jimmie Vaughan, Doyle Bramhall II, Ruthie Foster, Kim Wilson & the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Barbara Lynn, Lou Ann Barton, Sunnyland Slim and more. Established in 1975 by the late Clifford Antone, Antone’s is an iconic blues venue located in downtown Austin. Over the past 50 years, Antone’s has brought Austin a variety of blues and musicians from across the country including B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, Ray Charles, and James Brown, and helped develop local talent like Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Bob Schneider, Gary Clark Jr., and others. In 2015, the historic brand was restored and a new team brought the iconic venue back to the downtown Austin landscape with a renewed focus on once again making Antone’s the “Home of the Blues.” User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
