Jimmie Vaughan is one of the greatest guitarists of his generation, and his own brother Stevie Ray Vaughan would probably be the first to tell you that. Jimmie helped put Austin on the blues map after moving from Dallas in the ’70s. Frequent performances at Antone’s made the famed club the go-to spot for blues aficionados.
As Antone’s celebrates its 47th birthday all year long, Jimmie returns to the club this Saturday, July 2 with his Tilt-A-Whirl Band. And this week on My KUTX, we’re rebroadcasting his 2015 guest DJ set. Jimmie spins a lot of his favorite blues, R&B, country, and jazz songs that he first discovered while growing up in Dallas. Hear Jimmie Vaughan’s My KUTX on Saturday, July 2 at 6 p.m. or listen anytime at the top of the page.
