About this event
There probably aren’t enough thick books and serious documentaries recognizing San Antonio as a musical epicenter. But even if there were, they wouldn’t be nearly as much fun as Garrett T. Capps’ new album, I Still Love San Antone. With all the heartfelt zaniness audiences have come to expect from the S.
A.-based singer-songwriter, the album pushes far beyond any novelty record format. Capps’ masterful work of offbeat regional storytelling incorporates fired-up country-rock and retro Tex-Mex instrumentation with a genuinely psychedelic worldview.
Co-written with and produced by Texas D.
I.
Y. innovator Bill Baird, 15 tracks capture an astonishingly concise cultural history of the Alamo City’s contemporary outsiders and oddities. Bottling The 210 both lyrically and sonically, the album features performances by Lone Star legends Joe “King” Carrasco, Santiago Jiménez Jr., Rosie Flores, Augie Meyers, and Butthole Surfers’ Paul Leary. Incoming March 10, I Still Love San Antone marks Garrett T. Capps’ debut with California-based Nudie Records.
“Bill and I bonded over our underdog mentality about San Antonio,” says Capps. “I was like, ‘We should make the most far-out, extreme San Antonio album of all time.’ We had to do this because no one else would. That was the spirit of the album.”
Capps’ charismatically honest vocals and live-honed rock instincts guide the hyper-niche journey through Central Texas lore. For a follow-up to his 2021 album, I Love San Antone, the Texas troubadour teamed up with Baird (Sound Team, Sunset, Heavy Meddo), who had recently returned to their shared hometown. From “Bongo Joe” to “Remember the Alamodome,” the album draws on Baird’s recent work writing in-depth local histories for the San Antonio Current newspaper.
