Still Austin Quarter

Renowned Austin architect Richard Weiss, frontman of <a href="https://www.starkitect.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Starkitect</a>, is hosting their album release show and musical premiere on Thursday, Oct. 22 inside The Music Room of the new Still Austin Quarter (located at 4211 Willow Springs Rd, Austin, TX 78745) at 7 p.m. “Post Peak Power Pop!” is the band’s debut album, and explores topics like the transformation and the evolving landscape of Austin, AI’s hijacking of creativity and society’s subsequent loss of authenticity – themes that Weiss believes can only be fought with individual expression. The accompanying musical follows the adventures of an Austin architect with a secret identity, some mental instability and a plan to save humanity. Vinyl records of the new album will be available for purchase onsite, as well as online at madebymutant.com. The show is free and open to the public, to RSVP see the event page <a href="https://partiful.com/e/AwD0CNYAa2MhrDksgVj1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">here</a> (https://partiful.com/e/AwD0CNYAa2MhrDksgVj1). The full album will be available for streaming the following day on Oct. 23.

Cheer Up Charlies

Austin-based singer, songwriter, recording artist and LGBTQ+ activist Caleb De Casper announces the official release date for his forthcoming album, “Delirium,” slated to drop Friday, Feb. 12, with an official release show to be announced. De Casper also unveils the forthcoming single “People Don’t Fall,” on Wednesday, Sept. 30 followed by the accompanying music video release and release show on Thursday, Oct. 29 at Cheer Up Charlies at 8 p.m. De Casper will be joined on stage by McKenna Michels, Armando, and Brooklyn-based artist J-Line. The show is free and open to the public.&nbsp;

“Delirium” documents a queer coming-of-age story told through the metaphor of a vampire - a persona that De Casper has grown to align with. The record captures an underground cult artist moving toward the mainstream without softening his edges. Influenced by pop greats such as Pete Burns, Depeche Mode, Lady Gaga, Peaches, Prince, and INXS, “Delirium” is De Casper’s most polished and club-ready work to date.

From the horror cabaret and glam-rock theatrics of his early career to the shadowy, neon-lit world of his current dark synth-pop, De Casper has never stopped evolving. A classically trained pianist and vocalist, he commands the stage with a sharpened, unmistakable intensity - trading in the avant-garde gowns and stilettos of the past for a bold, more masculine and unfiltered presence that puts the focus squarely on the music, the message, and the electricity of performance. And with “Delirum,” visually and sonically, De Casper transforms once again. This era trades platform heels, flowing raven hair, and theatrical glamour for a mustache, homemade-mullet, cowboy boots, and an unapologetically masculine silhouette - all filtered through his signature vampiric allure.
