❤️‍🔥 About HeartByrne:

HeartByrne pays tribute to Talking Heads and David Byrne, who fused pop, funk, art rock, and African rhythms into perhaps the most adventurous, danceable and timeless music to emerge from the new wave movement.

HeartByrne picks up the torch where the seminal concert film ‘Stop Making Sense’ left off, breathing new life into the classics and pushing the grooves into uncharted sonic territory. What began as an informal ‘hoot night’ has evolved into a must-see touring act featuring vocalist Andrew Harn and some of Austin, TX’s most talented musicians.

🎒 What to bring:

• A backpack/bag to keep your stuff in
• WATER!! (we will provide some water, but we recommend bringing a water bottle in addition)
• Sunscreen
• Sunglasses
• Towel
• Floats! They have noodles on the boat, but we wanna see all those Instagram worthy floats ya got!
• Cooler with your own beverages of choice. We will provide a good amount of drinks, but you're welcome to bring your own as well. Only 1 rule, NO GLASS!

📣 MAJOR shoutouts once again to our amazing sponsors:

• Ranch Rider Spirits: Leave hard seltzer in the dust, drink something real. Ranch Rider uses only fresh squeezed fruit juice and quality spirits.
• Bear King Brewing Co.: Bear King Brewing was founded in 2016 by 4 siblings in the heart of Marble Falls, TX. What’s the story behind “Bear King”? Well, legend has it, that in the 1900’s, local hunters spotted a Half-Bear Half-man roaming the Hill Country. Think Sasquatch, except in Texas, everything is bigger (and better). We’re inspired by the age-old tradition of telling stories and tall tales with good beer and great company.
• Guayakí Yerba Mate: Guayakí’s vision holds that yerba mate culture will connect people and create vibrant communities while powering the Market Driven Regeneration business model to support the Atlantic Rainforest and the people native to the region. Yerba Mate has the strength of coffee, health benefits of tea and euphoria of chocolate. Come To Life!
• Richard's Rainwater: Sparkling & still rainwater responsibly sourced straight from the sky. No plastic bottles, no PFAS, no BS.
• Jitters Espresso & Spirits: Pop-up craft cocktail + coffee service catering to Austin, TX. ::Mixing up Order & Chaos::

A portion of proceeds from this event will be donated to the The Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM). HAAM provides access to affordable healthcare for Austin’s low-income, underinsured working musicians with a focus on prevention and wellness. For more information, visit https://myhaam.org/
