Selwyn and Noah at HonkTX

One of the most fun things you can do in Austin in Spring every year, is go to HonkTX.  This free music festival celebrating brass bands spans 4 days and a range of venues in Austin.  I always have a rip-roaring great time listening and shaking my booty to their amazing tunes. This year my son Noah and I attended the Saturday festivities at Mueller Lake park. 

 

Here are some of my photos from this year's event:

HONK!TX is a nonprofit, community-driven festival that brings street and brass bands from around the country to perform for free in the public spaces of Austin, Texas. Mobile and unamplified, HONK! bands transform everyday locations into spontaneous stages, dissolving the line between crowd and performers and inviting everyone to celebrate the joys of music and community. A range of genres will be represented: New Orleans second-line brass, European Klezmer and Balkan, Brazilian, West African and more. HONK! is a celebration of community, collaboration and creative expression. Join the revelry!
