BOSH

Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol have always been riff-lord unicorns, unleashing headbang-worthy guitar lines through the maximalist sonic death ray of singer Leo Lydon’s eight-string guitar and performed with camp and heartfeltness. On their latest, RBBP’s career peak and one of the best-sounding heavy albums of Austin in 2024, they cut to the chase, titling it Big Dumb Riffs. Accordingly, the power trio hosts this Big Dumb Fest with a lineup that encapsulates their heavy-yet-fun tenets: Die Spitz, Mugger, Billy King & the Bad Bad Bad, Buzz Electro, Bosh, and Banged Out. – Kevin Curtin
