Standing defiantly on a rapidly changing South Lamar Boulevard, The Saxon Pub is a fiercely treasured pillar of "Old Austin" and one of the most famous live music venues in Texas. Guarded by its iconic neon-lit knight in shining armor since it opened its doors in 1990, the venue has hosted over 30,000 live performances, serving as a second home to local legends and a must-play stage for touring Americana and blues heavyweights.The magic of The Saxon Pub lies in its dual identity. During acoustic sets, it operates as a strict, deeply respected "listening room," where the crowd goes silent so the nuances of world-class songwriting can shine through pristine acoustics. Later in the night, the room effortlessly shifts into a raucous, boot-stomping blues and roots-rock club.Famous for launching careers and hosting legendary, decades-long residencies (most notably Bob Schneider's legendary Monday nights), The Saxon Pub has been the recording site for numerous live albums and even inspired a documentary film. Unpretentious, richly historic, and endlessly welcoming, the Saxon is the beating heart of Austin’s singer-songwriter community.
