    1 IS AUSTIN STILL AUSTIN? A CULTURAL ANALYSIS THROUGH SOUND John Stevens (TC 660H or TC 359T) Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 13, 2020 __________________________________________ Thomas Palaima Department of Classics Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Richard Brennes Athletics Second Reader 2 Abstract Author: John Stevens Title: Is Austin Still Austin? A Cultural Analysis Through Sound Supervisors: Thomas Palaima, Ph. D and Richard Brennes For the second half of the 20th century, Austin, Texas was defined by its culture and unique personality. The traits that defined the city ushered in a progressive community that was seldom found in the South. In the 1960s, much of the new and young demographic chose music as the medium to share ideas and find community. The following decades saw Austin become a mecca for live music. Austin’s changing culture became defined by the music heard in the plethora of music venues that graced the city streets. As the city recruited technology companies and developed its downtown, live music suffered. People from all over the world have moved to Austin, in part because of the unique culture and live music. The mass-migration these individuals took part in led to the downfall of the music industry in Austin. This thesis will explore the rise of music in Austin, its direct ties with culture, and the eventual loss of culture. I aim for the reader to finish this thesis and think about what direction we want the city to go in. 3 Acknowledgments Thank you to my advisor Professor Thomas Palaima and second-reader Richard Brennes for the support and valuable contributions to my research.

    Homegrown: Austin Music Posters 1967 to 1982

    Homegrown: Austin Music Posters 1967 to 1982 Alan Schaefer The opening of the Vulcan Gas Company in 1967 marked a significant turning point in the history of music, art, and underground culture in Austin, Texas. Modeled after the psychedelic ballrooms of San Francisco, the Vulcan Gas Company presented the best of local and national psychedelic rock and roll as well as the kings and queens of the blues. The primary 46 medium for advertising performances at the 47 venue was the poster, though these posters were not simple examples of commercial art with stock publicity photos and redundant designs. The Vulcan Gas Company posters — a radical body of work drawing from psychedelia, surrealism, art nouveau, old west motifs, and portraiture — established a blueprint for the modern concert poster and helped articulate the visual language of Austin’s emerging underground scenes. The Vulcan Gas Company closed its doors in the spring of 1970, but a new decade witnessed the rapid development of Austin’s music scene and the posters that promoted it. Austin’s music poster artists offered a visual narrative of the music and culture of the city, and a substantial collection of these posters has found a home at the Wittliff Collections at Texas State University. The Wittliff Collections presented Homegrown: Austin Music Posters 1967 to 1982 in its gallery in the Alkek Library in 2015. The exhibition was curated by Katie Salzmann, lead archivist at the Wittliff Collections, and Alan Schaefer, a lecturer in the Department of English Jim Franklin. New Atlantis, Lavender Hill Express, Texas Pacific, Eternal Life Corp., and Georgetown Medical Band.

Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 10 [2010], Iss. 1, Art. 3 “I wanna go home with the Armadillo Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene The friendliest people and the prettiest women You’ve ever seen.” These lyrics from Gary P. Nunn’s “London Homesick Blues” adorn the wall above the exit from the Austin Bergstrom International Airport baggage claim. For years, they also played as the theme to the award-winning PBS series Austin City Limits. In short, they have served in more than one instance as an advertisement for the city’s sense of self, the face that Austin, Texas, presents to visitors and national audiences. The quoted words refer, if obliquely, to a moment in 9 the 1970s when the city first began fashioning itself as a key American site of musical production, one invested with a combination of talent and tradition and tolerance that would make of it the self-proclaimed “Live Music Capital of the World.”1 In many ways, the venue of the Armadillo World Headquarters served as ground zero for these developments, and it is often remembered as a primary site for the decade’s supposed melding of Anglo-Texan traditions and countercultural lifestyles.2 This strand of public memory reveres the Armadillo as a place in which

    2017 ANNUAL REPORT T E X A S B O O K F E S T I V A L 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND BOARD CHAIR The Texas Book Festival's vision is to inspire Texans of all ages to love reading. Our programs improve literacy and literary engagement throughout the state, thanks to the investment of board members, donors, sponsors, partners, and volunteers who believe in the power of reading to change lives. 2017 marked the annual Festival Weekend’s twenty-second year. This past November 4 - 5, the Festival drew its largest crowd ever, as 50,000 turned out to meet literary legends like Jeffrey Eugenides, breakout novelists like Min Jin Lee, critically acclaimed YA authors like Jason Reynolds, beloved members of Texas's former first family Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Bush, and the one and only Tom Hanks. The Texas Book Festival, though, is so much more than a festival. 2017 marked a year of intentional, creative growth throughout the state. We piloted our Reading Rock Stars program in Dallas, held our first literary salon in Midland with Skip Hollandsworth, and expanded our Board of Advisors to include advocates from Galveston to El Paso (797 miles!). The work we do would not be possible without your involvement and support. Thank you for sharing our commitment to literacy and literary culture in Texas.
