The Endtables will perform live for the first time in 30 years on March 18 at Barbarella, as part of the 25^th annual SXSW Music Festival in Austin. One of Louisville’s earliest punk bands, their material was out of print and highly sought after before Drag City issued a retrospective last year. The vinyl and CD have now sold out; only downloads are available.

‘Both Hands’ now
Workers test-drive songs from their forthcoming album Both Hands on Saturday, Jan. 22, at Headliners Music Hall (1386 Lexington Road, 584-8088). The band recorded the follow-up to their self-titled, quasi-debut with Erik Wofford (The Black Angels, Maserati) and The Funeral Home in Louisville. Second Story Man and Seluah will join in the fun. Doors open at 8 p.m. Admission is $8. Check out www.weareworkers.com.

‘Youth and Lightness’
Young Widows’ newest, In and Out of Youth and Lightness, arrives April 12 from Temporary Residence; Stereogum released the first single, “Future Heart,” for download on its website last week. Go to www.youngwidows.net.
