The Electrician will be joined by Austin singer-songwriter Southpaw Jones, who describes himself as "Whimsicologist Extraordinaire." There's more than a bit of our man Beans Barton's theatrical insanity in Jones, who pairs with Sever every Wednesday at Cafe Mundi in Austin. He describes his current recording, Bedroom Demos Vol. 1: Zero Demand, as being "recorded over a two-year span in solitude and madness." Jones is quick-witted and a master of clever wordplay, so take your thesaurus and an open mind to what will surely be an evening of smiles, guffaws, and belly laughs. - William Michael Smith
Matt "the Electrician" Sever and Southpaw Jones perform tonight at Anderson Fair, 2007 Grant, 713-528-8576.
