@ C-Boy’s Heart & Soul (2008 S. Congress Ave.) – Doors at 6 p.m.
One of Austin’s finest soul artists, Tameca Jones is a force of musical fury. Owning a breathtaking, heart-stirring voice and an ear for groove, Jones seamlessly dances the line between beauty and bombast. An artist worth seeing before she blows up nationwide. Filling out the lineup are ATX jazz jumpers Jitterbug Vipers and Dallas-based blues man Dylan Bishop.

@ The Blackheart (86 Rainey St.) – 9 p.m.
Alternative pop act Indoor Creature celebrates its latest release, “Windows,” this Saturday at The Blackheart. Balancing sharp, 80’s synth with layered dreamscapes and whimsical arrangements, this two-some has a sound all their own. Odd, dreamy and a bit weird, Indoor Creature still manages to catch your ear with off-kilter pop goodness.
