Austin
Music Scene Panel

HAAM CEO Paul Scott moderates a Texas Book Festival panel with Mitch Baranowski, founder and editor in chief of Thunderhouse Media Group, and photo editor David Brendan Hall. The discussion celebrates the award-winning book “Austin’s Music Scene: Your Guide to the City’s Most Iconic Artists & Venues,” created in partnership with HAAM, and covers how the book came together, stories from the scene, and the challenges facing musicians and venues today. Half of the book’s net proceeds support HAAM’s mission of giving Austin’s working musicians access to affordable healthcare. The panel runs Sunday, Nov. 15, from 11:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. at the Texas State Library and Archives Commission, 1201 Brazos St. It is free and open to the public, with time for audience questions. A book signing follows at 12:30 p.m.
