Friday 9/19: Douglas Ferguson, ST37 and more at Scoot Inn


Douglas Ferguson

Vacuum tubes glowing hot to the max, layers of sound undulating forwards, back, down, up…. more reverb? That and more this Friday at the Scoot Inn as ST37, Followed By Static, Douglas Ferguson and Shawn David McMillen take “stage” for a free for all of experimental good times, psych and noise rock. Fresh off tour Doug Ferguson brings the landscapes he’s recently explored to soundscapes he’s never quit foraging. Followed By Static – the duo comprising of members of iKiLLCaRS and The Koreans – soak their punk and rock roots til they fall apart into drip drops of minimal play that swells into a sea of driving noise. ST37, Austin’s perennial psych band, dust off their saddles and ride the eve into oblivion. Or at least to last call.

10 – Shawn David McMillen
11 – Douglas Ferguson
12 – Followed By Static
1 – ST37
