Awesome show. Haven’t seen a band with this much heart in a long time. The only bad part was it ended.

I can’t say enough about Spirit Adrift. They have the showmanship and professionalism of much larger acts and sound just like the album when playing live. I had the opportunity to meet bandleader Nate Garrett after the show, and he was nothing short of gracious and humble, More people need to discover this band.

Reports of heavy metal’s death are greatly exaggerated. Spirit Adrift treat Austin to a triumphant return before kicking off an ambitious European tour.
Last night’s Spirit Adrift show, their first since Nate Garrett moved from Arizona to just outside of Austin (just a few miles from Rancho Bulboso), was a triumphant return, reminding me of when I saw Baroness in 2013 after they survived a horrific crash where their bus plunged down a 40 foot cliff in England in 2012. Two members were injured so badly they had to leave the band, and others were in the hospital for weeks and had to go through intense physical therapy and learn to play again, working around their injuries, just nine months after the accident. When remaining members John Baizley and Pete Adams came onstage at the Subterranean in Chicago, it was jubilant. They were clearly stoked to be alive and playing. Adams left in 2017 to focus on his own projects, leaving Baizley as the sole original member.
Garrett’s ordeals might be less obviously dramatic, but still significant. Spirit Adrift began as a solo project, with Garrett battling his personal demons and addiction in the Arizona mountains and desert. During the pandemic, he and his wife moved to a rural area outside of Austin, bought land and built homes for themselves and his grandparents who raised him. Dealing with that and the pandemic, he still managed to release an EP on new label Century Media, Forge Your Future, on August 27 last year. For their Texas debut, brothers Marcus (drums) and Preston Bryant (synths) were no longer in the band, replaced by Mike Arellano (drums), Sonny DeCarlo (bass) and Leanne Martz (guitar). Leanne was sporting a Baroness shirt, who’s talented new-ish guitarist Gina Gleason, is inspiring as a fresh new songwriting contributor. Both women can shred, with Martz nailing her solos, and the dual guitarmonies with Garrett. | More: https://fastnbulbous.com/spirit-adrift-at-mohawk/

Spirit Adrift and High Command were both amazing but there were so few people at Monty Hall that it was almost awkward.
