About the event
Join us November 12, 13, 14 and 15, 2026 for the 29th Annual Big Band Bash at Hill Top Café.
Blues great and Texas legend Jimmie Vaughan joins Johnny Nicholas for this year's Bash. Jimmie's all star band will include the West Side Horns, Ernie Durawa, Scrappy Jud Newcomb and Chris Maresh, with Johnny on piano and guest vocals.
Thursday night will feature several young Austin songwriters, a western swing segment and a very special mystery guest.
This year's Bash will support arts scholarships for area high school students interested in music, writing, theatre and other creative work.
Last year, with your support, the Bash raised $102,500 for the Hill Country Foundation's building fund to help our friends and neighbors in Kerr County rebuild after the devastating July 4 flooding.
More artists and a nightly schedule will be announced soon.
Make your reservations early by calling 830 997 8922. Come enjoy the music and a good meal while supporting the next generation of Hill Country artists.
