NEED SPACE?

Three…two…one…BLASTOFF! Rock-it with Casper Rawls and the Planet Casper crew every Thursday at the Continental Club! Planet Casper’s revolving cast of characters includes Warren Hood, David Grissom, “Scrappy” Jud Newcomb, Marvin Dykhuis, Steve Doerr, Rich Brotherton, Earl P. Ball and a mouth-watering variety of the best bassists and drummers in town. Planet Casper also hosts a cool slew of singers, songwriters and bands including Robyn and John Ludwick, Rosie Flores, Sarah Brown, The LeRoi Brothers, The Austin Cajun Aces, and Earl P. Ball and The Cosmic Americans.

What to expect? Just about everything from an all-acoustic front-porch hang to an electric romp through blazing instrumentals. Planet Casper is abundant with surprising and unpredictable treats of musicianship, groove and damn good songs. On Planet Casper you’ll find among the musicians the universal quest to uncover that juicy molecule of music you never expected to hear. And it’s no wonder other musicians love to stop over on Planet Casper. Casper is a musician’s musician. For Casper it’s more than just being onstage. It’s orbiting through this crazy thing called music with other musicians along with his audience of friends. It’s as much stepping in front to erupt into a classic yet delirious Casper solo as it is handing over the controls to others for their turn to shine. And the audience revels in the impromptu meeting of the musical minds whose atmosphere possesses an earthy vibe.

Turn up, turn out, arrive or crash land yourself on Planet Casper. Liftoff is every Thursday from 6:30pm-9:30pm at the Continental Club. Strap yourself in -- you never know who might share the planet with Casper that night.

“With his trademark pink paisley telecaster slung over his shoulder, Casper’s passion for truth in music reverberates straight to your heart in every note, every bend, every cry and moan he coaxes from a humbled guitar string. He is also the kindest, gentlest soul to boot--everything music should be about.” --Libbi Bosworth
