Will Sexton & Amy LaVere

Will Sexton

San Antonio-born Sexton was a musical prodigy who eventually moved to Austin, coming of age in the city’s hothouse environment. Playing with iconic Lone Star figures such as Doug Sahm, Joe Ely, Roky Erickson, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, he scored a major label deal while still in his teens fronting Will and the Kill.

Over the past three decades, Sexton has grown into a skilled musical polymath: an esteemed writer, producer, sessions player, and solo artist with a string of acclaimed LPs.

Amy LaVere

Amy’s live performances are anything but predictable. She might appear on stage with a full band, sporting a mask and pink wig, or simply be a natural in blue jeans and sandals, but her upright bass and clever song delivery are constants. Her voice is at once the bully and the victim. She’s performed in venues as wide-ranging as St. Andrew’s Hall in Longdon and Memphis’ famed dive bar Earnestine and Hazel’s: There’s no room she can’t find an audience in and charm it to pieces.
