Two Tons of Steel Play La Cabana May 20

Share

 

Country meets a dash of punk Friday, May 20 when San Antonio’s Two Tons of Steel brings its unique sound to La Cabana Grill, Spicewood , for the last concert in the Spicewood Arts Society’s current season. The family-friendly concert starts at 7 p.m.

 

 

This is an added performance and not included in the season ticket package. Buy tickets ($25 for adults, $10 for children 12 and under) at www.spicewoodarts.org

 

The band’s been rocking local stages for two decades and is easily one of San Antonio’s favorite bands. From their debut self-titled album in 1994, to the cover of Billboard magazine, bandleader Kevin Geil honed a rockabilly-metal blend that earned them a “Band of the Year” nod twelve times and “Best Country Band” by the San Antonio Current ten times.

 

Fans may know them from their 20 years at Gruene Hall, where the summer-long “Two Ton Tuesdays” has drawn more than 180,000 fans since it began its annual run in 1995. Out of that success came the equally popular “Two Ton Tuesday Spring Break Show” and “Ton Ton Tuesday Christmas Show.”

 

Extending their range beyond live performances, Two Tons was featured in the film “Texas: The Big Picture” shown at the IMAX Theatre in the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin. They’ve been featured in several Texas tourism commercials as well as the opening scene for “Austin City Limits.”

 

A new release, ”Garage Songs,” will be coming in August, featuring ten new songs written in Kevin Geil’s garage during practice.

 

Food and drink will be available through La Cabana, 21103 Highway 71. As seating at the restaurant’s picnic tables is first-come, first served, those attending are encouraged to bring lawn chairs.
