Welcome to the 2025–2026 Spicewood Live! On Stage!
Experience live music like never before—in an intimate, small-venue setting where every seat feels like a front row and every performance is a VIP experience.
This season brings a dynamic mix of fresh talent and returning favorites to the Hill Country. We open with Jake Andrews, Austin’s celebrated blues-rock guitarist, followed by the high-energy Latin rhythms of The Brew; both bands making their Spicewood Arts’ debut. The holidays shine bright with the return of the beloved Dallas String Quartet, blending classical finesse with modern edge.
We’re excited to welcome back Blue Water Highway, the Americana band that stole hearts last time around—now returning with powerful new music. Our outdoor concert features Jason Boland & the Departed, a Red Dirt country powerhouse known for their heartfelt storytelling, high-energy shows, and loyal fan following.
As always, we close the season with the much-anticipated Toast to Tony jazz performance, featuring Aubrey Logan, the sultry songstress whose smooth vocals and timeless style captivate audiences (not to mention her great trombone talents). An unforgettable evening of music and community, proudly sponsored by our longtime friends, The Motheral Family.
Join us for a season where world-class artistry meets small-town warmth—up close, personal, and always extraordinary.

Featured Artist – Kathy Drago
Featured Artist – Kathy Drago
Kathy studied at the MFAH Glassell Studio School and was selected for the Glassell Studio School Block XX, a program for emerging artists with independent practices. Kathy paints figurative oil portraits of “old-old” women as well as abstract paintings referencing maps, migration, and visual plans. She was a 2017 Lawndale Big Show award winner and in 2022 had a solo show, LATE, at Art League Houston. She has a studio in The Silos at Sawyer Yards near downtown Houston.
I paint old-old women that I construct by combining images I collect from iPhone snapshots, social media posts, or grainy obituary photos. Sometimes the final painting resembles the person from one particular image, but more often, when I incorporate different faces, bodies, clothing, and backgrounds, an imaginary person emerges. While painting, I think about each woman’s life story. I draw on my background in theater arts and make these paintings the way an actor builds a character, using the outer physicality to reveal inner emotions and motivations. I deeply feel that the accumulation of years tells a compelling story and has a beauty all its own.
I also paint colorful abstracts. In my recent abstract work, the overarching theme that emerges is Finding a Path. Each new painting is telling me I want a map, a plan, perhaps a survival guide. I paint my concerns about climate, migration, health, and social divisiveness using bright, joyous colors because I am an optimist. I believe that people really care about each other and want to find common bonds and seek solutions together.
