A look at the history - and challenges - of live music in Austin TX seen through the lens of storied venue The Saxon Pub
Nothing Stays the Samecelebrates the last 30 years of live music in Austin, Texas, while also examining the challenges faced by musicians and music venues
in one of the fastest-growing and most popular cities in the USA, all through the lens of the legendarySaxon Pub.
With iconic Austin venues closing each year due to rising rents and property taxes, the writing is on the wall for the Saxon Pub, a mainstay in live music since 1990. Soon being forced to a new space - akin to closure for most clubs - its owner Joe Ables, its regulars and staff and its beloved musicians such as local luminaries Joe Ely, Bob Schneider, Patrice Pike, Guy Forsyth, Hector Ward, Carolyn Wonderland, The Resentments, Johnny Nicholas, W.C. Clark, Robynn Shayne and others, turn to face the music until they learn their fate might not be sealed after all.
Call it divine intervention or a stroke of good luck, the Saxon could live to see another day if it plays its cards right...
