Whatzup

It's a busy weekend filled with fun events including the Germanfest, Addison Agen at FW Phil Center, Little River Band at Foellinger Theatre, Turtle Days in Churubusco, and many more.

Let us know which event or any other you plan to attend!

Along guitarist Zach Smith, Eric Frank is back with his industrial music project CloudMaker, releasing the album "Eternal Decay" on Friday, June 12.

"On (Eternal Decay) I really strived to make it more kind of classic industrial, heavy industrial metal type music," Frank said in a Whatzup interview. "And there’s some soft stuff in there. There’s truly like an A and B side of the record where the second side is a little bit more relaxed."

The day after the album release, CloudMaker will host their Goth Night at The Brass Rail with Healng and Absolute Form.

"Part of the goal was to promote it as an event that plays dark music, but I really want to use it as an opportunity to start bringing in good out-of-town bands," Frank said of Goth Night.
