NATIONAL ACTS (More bands will be announced in upcoming weeks):

Helmet: Formed in 1989, Helmet’s forward-thinking fusion of metal, punk, indie-rock and jazz inspired countless bands and paved the way for bands like Chevelle, Deftones, Killswitch Engage, Norma Jean and Silverchair, among many others.

Ghostland Observatory: Austin’s own high-energy electro-rock duo of front man Aaron Behrens and producer/drummer Thomas Turner. A breakout band at last year’s South by Southwest music festival, Behrens’ vocal style and stage performances are unique and uncompromising, drawing early comparisons to Freddie Mercury and Prince.

Paramore: Driven by riveting live shows and the undeniable charisma of frontwoman, 18-year-old Hayley Williams, the rapidly emerging pop-punk quintet from Tennessee has been building a near-deafening “next big thing” buzz.

Disco Biscuits: It’s entered its second decade as one of the most successful acts on the jam-band circuit. The Biscuits bring together the worlds of jam bands and electronic music with its “trance-fusion” sound that mixes the free-form jazz improvisation with hypnotic rhythm.

Zappa Plays Zappa: The first official live concert event of Frank Zappa’s music since his untimely passing in 1993, Zappa Plays Zappa is a spot-on tribute by son Dweezil to his father — who joins dad onstage via recorded video from his past live shows. It’s the ultimate tribute to Zappa’s 30-plus year, groundbreaking career.

Edison Glass: Thomas Alva Edison gets a lot of credit for inventing modern essentials. Likewise, Edison Glass founder Phillip Glass is well known for composing modern masterpieces. With a storied Tulsa history, this prolific band has stayed its course throughout its nearly 10 years.

LOCAL AND REGIONAL ACTS: The Compulsions, Scott Goldman, Hush Hush Commotion, Admiral Twin, PDA, Ryan Lindsey, The Abdomen, Sam and the Stylees, Congress of a Crow, Cheyenne, The Effects, Stars Go Dim, Callupsie, El Paso Hot Button, Colourmusic, Blake-O, Taddy Porter, Mama Sweet, Glister, Stop, Revolt!, Jesse Aycock, Love In October, Matt Stansberry Band, People Noise, Red Dirt Rangers, Sir Threadius Mongus, Soulfege, The Uglysuit, Unwed Sailor, Annie Minogue, Motive For Movement, Crocodile, Slorder, 40engine
