THURSDAY, FEB. 10, AT THREE LINKS, 2704 ELM ST., $15 AT SEETICKETS.US With a sound that blends vintage rock ‘n’ roll and R&B, The 40 Acre Mule built its reputation with a truly entertaining live show. A little bit rowdy, a little bit raunchy and always rocking the night away, The 40 Acre Mule is sure to get the crowd moving to the boogie-woogie beat Thursday night at Three Links. The band’s big break came in 2016 while opening up the sold- out Elm Street Tattoo & Music Festival at the old Bomb Factory, and ever since, it’s only played bigger and better shows. Frontman J. Isaiah Ev- ans is an entertainer and a storyteller who plays all the way to the back of the audience, making sure everyone has a good time. Coming along for the ride that night, Dallas swamp boogie band Bull By The Horn continues its streak of killer opening spots, becoming known for its live shows without the need of an album, EP or sin- gle. DAVID FLETCHER Caribou 7 P.M. FRIDAY, FEB. 11, AT GRANADA THEATER, 3524 GREENVILLE AVE., $26 AT PREKINDLE.COM Daniel Snaith, aka Caribou, received a doctorate in mathematics from Imperial College London with his thesis, Overconvergent Siegel Modular Symbols. That may not necessarily explain why the electronic artist has such rich textures in his intelligent dance music, but it certainly speaks a lot to Caribou’s thought process. Snaith origi- nally released music under the name Manitoba before being threatened with a lawsuit by Rich- ard “Handsome Dick” Manitoba of punk band The Dictators. Since then, Snaith has released music under the name Caribou and Daphni — the latter being a moniker Snaith uses to release more dance-oriented music. The musician’s lat- est album Suddenly came out in 2020 to the ex- citement of music critics, making its way onto several high-profile best-of lists. Colombian electronic artist Ela Minus opens the show Fri- day night at the Granada. DF Jad Fair 8 P.M., FRIDAY, FEB. 11, AT RUBBER GLOVES, 411 E. SYCAMORE ST., $10 AT THE DOOR Jad Fair is nothing if not prolific. The volume of material the experimental rock god has pro- duced between the legendary art-punk band Half Japanese, his solo work and his collabora- tions with Daniel Johnston, Yo La Tengo, Teen- age Fanclub and countless others, is staggering if not overwhelming. Fair and his brother David founded Half Japanese in 1975 playing a small drum set and an out-of-tune guitar with all the passion that only outsider artists bring to the music. That band alone has released about 20 albums since 1980 — the most recent being 2020’s Crazy Hearts, which The New Yorker de- scribed as “rock backdrops, and keyboard drones allud[ing] to twin American pleasures — the Velvet Underground and ballparks.” Fair will be joined by Austin musicians Brian Birzer and Cheryl Tepper for this solo gig with opening sets by polka band Brave Combo and punk band Homewrecker & The Bedwetters. DF Reverend Horton Heat 7 P.M. SATURDAY, FEB. 12, AT TULIPS, 112 ST. LOUIS AVE., $22 AT PREKINDLE.COM As far as Dallas music staples go, it really doesn’t get much bigger than Reverend Horton Heat. Since 1986, the man, the band and the leg- end have represented North Texas with pride while recording for prominent indie labels like Sub Pop and Victory Records, finding a way onto the Billboard charts with every release since 1994. The principal members, guitarist Jim Heath and upright bass player Jimbo Wallace, have played together since 1989, keeping the Reverend Horton Heat name going with every new drummer. In 2021, however, the two teamed up with Slim Jim Phantom of The Stray Cats for a side project called The Jimbos. This Saturday, the band with 35 solid years of North Texas mu- sic history takes the stage in Fort Worth for a night of psychobilly stomping at Tulips. DF Kacey Musgraves 8 P.M. MONDAY, FEB. 14, AT AMERICAN AIRLINES CENTER, 2500 VICTORY AVE., $79+ AT TICKETMASTER.COM Coming this Valentine’s Day to the American Airlines Center, Kacey Musgraves performs in the city closest to her hometown of Mineola on her 15-city, star-crossed: unveiled tour. It’s hard to imagine that the woman who’s meteoric rise to prominence in the country and pop worlds since the release of Same Trailer, Different Park in 2013 once came in seventh on Season 5 of Nashville Star, back in 2007. Following the path set by Taylor Swift and Shania Twain before her, Musgraves has made a seamless move from country to pop with the release of her univer- sally acclaimed album star-crossed and its lead single “Justified” in 2021. While the album is in many ways more country than its predecessor Golden Hour, the use of musical elements from disco, dance, and R&B gave it an undeniable pop quality that made the album “not suffi- ciently country” for the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. Musgraves’ music really does transcend genre labels. DF ▼ Music Kacey Musgraves performs on Valentine’s Day.
