    About This Event

    Tad Cautious’ Remain In Light dance party at Hill Country Live presents Bobby Hackney (Death, Rough Francis) alongside additional acts to be announced. Hackney is a founding member of Death, the Detroit band formed in 1971 by brothers Bobby, David and Dannis Hackney; his presence brings a direct link to that group's history into the night.

    About The Heat Goes On

    At Hill Country Live, “The Heat Goes On” arrives as Tad Cautious’ Remain In Light dance party, built around a live bill anchored by Bobby Hackney, with Death and Rough Francis in the frame and more acts slated to join. Hackney’s appearance carries a specific lineage: Death’s early-1970s Detroit story sits at the edge of punk’s origin map, and it lands here inside a country-leaning night. The result reads less like genre purity than a document of how scenes travel. In New York, that kind of cross-billing is its own tradition.
