Here at JBG, we've got a special spot in our hearts for local Texas musicians, and we try to support their talent whenever we can! Whether it be outfitting local favorites like Shakey Graves with JBG hats for the road, sending home the musicians at HOPE Farmer's Market with lots of veggies, or filling our farm events with local talent, our staff considers supporting local music as important as supporting local food! When you buy tickets for next Saturday's Potluck and Harvest Hustle, know that your dollars are going primarily to support Austin's musical community by paying fair prices to these artists. This week we're featuring some of their talent below!

You may remember seeing Silas Lowe and his band perform at the Spring 2014 Potluck, and we are so excited to have him back for another round of Americana goodness! Our friend Carson McHone had to change her plans last minute, and we are so grateful that Silas was able to clear his schedule to play for us! Check out his recent feature on Longhorn Network:



The Bottom Dollar String Band is a local favorite, and if you haven't seen them yet you better get a ticket fast! This Hill Country bluegrass group spent their summer touring in Colorado, and we're happy to have them back to celebrate fall in Austin.



Finally, The Parish Festival is a group originally from Davenport, IA. The JBG team is stoked that this talented group now calls Austin home, though, so that we can have them perform at the farm! From their Twitter page, "If Django was born in Arkansas and had a baby with Rilo Kiley, that baby would be us."
