This year Antone's will celebrate 31 years of live music in Austin.

Clifford Antone opened Antone's Blues Club at the original location on 6th and Brazos on July 15, 1975. Each year we celebrate our anniversary on that date, and throughout the month of July.

People in and around Austin have grown accustom to looking forward to attending the Anniversary due to the extraordinary shows that are presented. 

This year will be a very special Anniversary month of music in order to celebrate Clifford's life. Many artists from around the country are joining us to share their talent, stories, memories and of course music with us at Antone's.

We will have several nights of early shows which feature the Chicago Blues greats - these are legends which simply cannot be missed. Living Historical Blues Legends. A night of female Blues greats is also planned.

In addition to celebrating Clifford's life and love of the blues, Antone's will present terrific bands that have been Clifford's favorites and have enabled Antone's to stay open year after year.  These bands represent a variety of genres and are exceptional.

We give a heartfelt thanks to Bob Schneider, to his band the Scabs, Del Castillo, Vallejo, The Gourds, Reckless Kelly - all who will be playing the Anniversary this year. Please check our website and listings for more bands and information regarding Antone's and the Anniversary.
