Eve Monsees & Mike Buck @6:30pm – No cover. 21+ only. Eve Monsees got her first guitar at 12 and soon began hooking up with her schoolmate, Gary Clark Jr., to regularly practice playing the blues. At 15 they began sitting in on jams at Austin clubs, and within a year they were getting their own gigs, including an opening slot for Jimmie Vaughan at Antone’s. Monsees established The Exiles with Mike Buck and in March 2004 they released their debut record. In 2007 Kathy Valentine approached her to join the Bluebonnets, an all girl rock band, and in 2010 they released their first album Boom Boom Boom Boom. She continues to play in a number of bands. Drummer Mike Buck brings a wealth of Texas roots music experience to the table. He's been playing in Eve and the Exiles with vocalist / guitarist Eve Monsees since 2002. Mike has been a staple of the Austin scene since the mid-'70s, making his mark as a founding member of the Fabulous Thunderbirds and playing on their first two albums, Girls Go Wild and What's the Word. Buck split the T-Birds to form the LeRoi Brothers, and was also a member of Big Guitars From Texas. Eve and the Exiles made their first self-titled album in 2004 and encored four years later with Blow Your Mind. Married in 2010, Mike and Eve are also intimately involved in the retail end of the music business--they're two of the owners of Antone's Record Shop in Austin. They are usually accompanied by Amsterdam-born guitarist Tjarko Jeen , known for impressive roots music skills on a Telecaster.
