Austin Psych Fest 2025 brings another slate of indie rock icons, experimental rock and tripped-out sounds, from shoegaze to psychedelic rock and cumbia, to the big South Austin backyard at The Far Out Lounge.
The event has always taken an expansive interpretation of psychedelia, exploring the outer edges of the musical spectrum that continue to be informed and inspired by 1960s sonic experimentation, and a penchant for loud guitars and plenty of reverb. This year’s lineup is no different. Friday night is topped off with post-rock titans Explosions in the Sky, and Godspeed! You Black Emperor, two artists who have conjured up wildly emotive and ethereal music, without any words, a testament to the sheer power of music. Heavy psych rockers Black Mountain and Kadavar round out Day One, with Austin experimentalists Octopus Project and more.
Saturday night brings electronic psych explorers Darkside, indie icon Kim Gordon fresh off her recent Grammy nomination, the cosmic grooves of electro-rock outfit STRFKR, art rock auteur Geordie Greep plus Wombo, Sasami, and more on Day Two.
Day Three brings it all together with ’90s guitar rock icons Dinosaur Jr playing their landmark album Without A Sound, co-headlining with beloved indie rock trio Yo La Tengo, joined by Peruvian cumbia legends Los Mirlos, viral UK alt-rockers BÔA, Seattle quartet La Luz, luminary Dean Wareham of Galaxie 500 playing tracks from the band’s legendary discography, and more incredible tunes from Mystery Lights, Holy Wave, and more, with additional acts for the weekend to be announced.
Tickets are on sale now! Three-day passes and single-day tickets are available along with a limited number of Early Bird options here.

RALEIGH, N.C. – Forward Sebastian Aho will be a game-time decision for the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday when they take on the Chicago Blackhawks.
According to Rod Brind’Amour, the team’s star center “didn’t feel well when he got to the rink” this morning. He returned home before taking part in the morning skate with the team. If Aho is not able to go, it would be the second consecutive contest that they’d be missing someone up front due to illness, after Jack Roslovic had to sit out Tuesday’s win over New York.
On a positive note though, Roslovic was back with the team this morning, working in Aho’s spot between Mikko Rantanen and Jackson Blake. Among players who have played for the team all season, only Seth Jarvis (19) has more goals than Roslovic (18).
Behind the cast of skaters, the team is expected to turn to Pyotr Kochetkov (18-9-3 | 2.48 GAA | .903 SV%) between the pipes on Thursday as they aim to move their point streak to seven games.
With a 3-0-2 mark in his last five appearances, the 25-year-old backstop has gotten into an every-other-game rotation with Frederik Andersen since the Dane returned from knee surgery early last week.

SAN FRANCISCO — Steve Kerr joked that he’s trying to set the record for most different starting lineups in a season.
He’s not a on a bad pace.
Golden State’s latest wrinkle is inserting two-way center Quinten Post into the starting-five, taking the place of Trayce Jackson-Davis. Post, who has impressed in his first four games in an NBA rotation, gives the Warriors a new look as a floor-spacing center.
The starting-five of Post, Steph Curry, Buddy Hield, Andrew Wiggins and Gary Payton II is the Warriors’ 28th unique starting lineup combination of the season — tied with Philadelphia for the most this year. Memphis set the all-time record for distinct starting units last year with 51.
Post has been shooting the ball with confidence from behind the arc, hoisting up four, 10, five and five 3-point attempts in the past four games. The 24-year-old rookie has developed fast chemistry with Curry, whom he’d never played alongside — not even in training camp — before last week.
Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga remain sidelined by injuries, but it’s easy to imagine Post’s skill set unlocking them when they return.
“I think the beauty of a stretch big is that everybody can play with a stretch big,” Kerr said earlier this week. “It opens up the floor. It literally makes everybody better.”
Post is shooting 37.5% from 3 on what’s still a small sample. There are concerns about his defensive ability, particularly in the pick-and-roll and in staying out of foul trouble. Oklahoma City, which plays a five-out style, is bound to target him by drawing him out of the paint on switches.
But this season has been about searching for combinations that work, and Post seems like an easy player to fit around.
Jackson-Davis, meanwhile, heads to the bench a day after being named to the Rising Stars team as a sophomore. He and Kevon Looney should still factor into nightly game plans, particularly with Green unavailable. Jackson-Davis is shooting 57.2% from the field this year, well down from his 70.2% mark as a rookie.
Notable
— Steve Kerr presented Grant Hill with an Olympics championship ring before the Warriors game tipped off. Kerr and Steph Curry, along with coaches Klint Carlson and Khalid Robinson, also got honored with rings pregame for their work on the gold medal-winning Team USA. Kerr was named Men’s Basketball Coach of the Year and Curry Player of the Year.
— Quinten Post was named to the G League Up Next Game, which is essentially a G League All-Star game. The miniature tournament will be played at Moscone Center during All-Star weekend in San Francisco.
— The first-place, 37-8 Thunder entered Wednesday as 9.5-point favorites over the Warriors.
Originally Published:
The Golden State Warriors made a surprising move by inserting rookie Quinten Post into the starting lineup for their upcoming game. Head coach Steve Kerr has shown confidence in the young center, who has impressed in limited minutes off the bench.
Post, a second-round pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, has shown flashes of potential with his size, shooting touch, and defensive instincts. Kerr believes that Post’s skill set will complement the team’s starting lineup and provide a new dynamic on both ends of the court.
Fans are excited to see how Post will perform in his first start and are hopeful that he can make an impact alongside the Warriors’ star players. Kerr’s decision to shake up the lineup shows his willingness to give young players opportunities to prove themselves and contribute to the team’s success.
Stay tuned to see how Post fares in his debut as a starter and how this lineup change will affect the Warriors’ performance in the upcoming games. #Warriors #QuintenPost #SteveKerr #NBAStarters

Payton is in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
The Warriors continue to mix and match their starting five, with Payton making his ninth start of the season Wednesday. Across eight games in Golden State’s first unit, the defensive-minded guard has averaged 6.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks in 15.2 minutes.
After being sidelined with an injury for the past few games, Gary Payton has finally returned to the starting lineup for the upcoming game. The star point guard is eager to make his presence felt on the court once again and help lead his team to victory.
Payton’s return to the starting lineup is a welcome sight for fans and teammates alike, as his leadership and playmaking abilities have been sorely missed. With his tenacity on defense and knack for scoring in clutch moments, Payton is sure to make a big impact in the game.
Stay tuned for more updates on Gary Payton and his performance in the starting lineup as he looks to lead his team to success on the court. #GaryPayton #StartingLineup #NBA #BasketballNews
Moody is in the starting lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Jazz, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
The Warriors are opting to have Moody make his fifth start of the season Tuesday, with Gary Payton sliding to the second unit against Utah. Over four appearances in Golden State’s first unit in 2024-25, Moody averaged 10.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 three-pointers in 19.4 minutes while shooting a blistering 62.5 percent from beyond the arc.
Exciting news for Arkansas Razorbacks fans as Moses Moody is set to join the starting lineup for Tuesday’s game. The highly-touted freshman guard has been making a strong impact off the bench and now gets his opportunity to shine from the tip-off.
Head coach Eric Musselman has been impressed with Moody’s work ethic and maturity on and off the court, leading to this promotion to the starting five. With his scoring ability and defensive prowess, Moody is sure to make an immediate impact in the starting lineup.
Razorbacks fans can look forward to seeing Moses Moody showcase his skills as a starter and help lead the team to victory. Stay tuned for more updates on this talented young player as he continues to make a name for himself in college basketball. #MosesMoody #Razorbacks #StartingLineup #CollegeBasketball

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Hubert Davis made changes to North Carolina’s starting lineup during the weekend for the fourth time this season, and the coach said Monday that his team’s first group won’t be carved in stone as the Tar Heels move forward through ACC basketball league play.
Already small UNC downsized even more two days ago, returning 6-foot-3 Seth Trimble and 6-8 Ven-Allen Lubin to the opening lineup against Boston College, while shifting 6-6 Drake Powell and 6-10 Jalen Washington to the bench.
Those moves meant the Tar Heels rolled out four guards who are listed at 6-4 or shorter, with Elliot Cadeau, RJ Davis and Ian Jackson remaining in place in the starting lineup. UNC went on to rotate and use Powell (27 minutes of action off the bench) and Washington (26 minutes of action off the bench) plenty in different lineup combinations as the game extended into overtime.
“It’s a fluid situation,” Hubert Davis said Monday on the weekly videoconference call for ACC basketball coaches, when asked about his approach on starting assignments at this juncture of the season. “It’s matchups in regard to starting the game, the rotations. It is a fluid situation. It’s not fluid in some positions, but in other positions it is fluid. It’s all determined, really, on the rhythm of us and just the matchups in terms of who we’re playing. And so every game, I look at it that way. There isn’t going to be a set five. It will be determined by matchups and how guys are playing and rotations. There’s a number of factors that will go into who starts the game.”
Carolina (13-8 overall, 6-3 ACC) travels to tangle with Pittsburgh (13-6, 4-4) on Tuesday night, a matchup that closes the month of January for the Tar Heels and sets in motion a pivotal portion of the conference schedule. Across the next four games, UNC has road stops at Pitt, Duke and Clemson — all of them opportunities to secure profitable Quad 1 victories in the NET rankings — with a Feb. 8 home date against Pitt sandwiched in between. By the night of Feb. 10, when UNC plays at Clemson, the Tar Heels’ NCAA Tournament résumé will have taken on a clearer shape.
Lubin had put together a three-game stretch of serviceable contributions, averaging 8.7 points and 6.7 rebounds off the bench against California, Stanford and Wake Forest, prior to UNC overcoming Boston College 102-96 in overtime. Washington, though, became a major factor against BC with 18 points, six rebounds and three assists. He tied a career high in scoring, and his playing time doubled Lubin’s 13 minutes of game action.
Meanwhile, Trimble logged 42 minutes of game time, the most for any Carolina player against BC. He was back in UNC’s starting lineup after an eight-game absence, and responded by delivering 18 points and a career-best 12 rebounds. Trimble supplied the Tar Heels’ last four points of regulation, including a left-handed turnaround in the lane that tied the score with 12.9 seconds remaining.

Trimble started the first 12 games of the season, before suffering a concussion during a Dec. 28 practice session. After UNC survived BC, Trimble said Hubert Davis hadn’t mentioned his reasoning for changing the starting lineup this time around.
Cadeau and RJ Davis have started all 21 games for the Tar Heels. Veteran forward Jae’Lyn Withers started UNC’s first seven games of the season, until the freshman Powell replaced him during the Maui Invitational. Lubin has five starting assignments in the post, and Washington has compiled the other 16. The freshman Jackson has started nine straight games, and produced a scoring average of 18.6 points per game across that span.
“The four-guard lineup worked against UCLA really well, and then we practiced it a little bit after that,” Trimble said Saturday, referring to Carolina’s rally past the Bruins four days before Christmas. “But then I got hurt. So maybe we would’ve gone to that before now, but I don’t know. I’m just here to play, no matter what.”
Pitt certainly doesn’t lack for size with a starting group that includes 6-10 bruiser Cameron Corhen and 7-footer Guillermo Diaz Graham, along with 6-7 forward Zack Austin. The Panthers bring 6-5 guard Damian Dunn off the bench as a sixth man, and also rotate in 6-3 guard Brandin Cummings, 6-11 forward Jorge Diaz Graham and 6-8 forward Amsal Delalić as subs.
But Pitt has been out-rebounded in ACC league play by an average of 5.1 boards per game. And the Tar Heels, for all of their limitations down low, are out-rebounding their ACC opponents by a margin of 2.1 boards per game. Carolina has lost the rebounding battle to Louisville, Stanford and Wake Forest in its three conference defeats. UNC grabbed a healthy 36-23 rebounding advantage two days ago against Boston College, including 12-6 on the offensive glass.
Pitt’s pair of 6-3 guards, Jaland Lowe (17.6 points per game) and Ishmael Leggett (16.6 points per game), lead the team in scoring on the season. Near the end of last season, the lefty Lowe finished with 17 points against UNC in the ACC Tournament semifinals.
“What’s going to be huge for us the remainder of the ACC is, how consistent can we be?” Hubert Davis said Monday. “How consistent can we be offensively taking good shots, taking care of the basketball. How consistent can we be defensively getting stops, rebounding and defending without fouling. It just is what it is. That’s just going to be the key for us, our consistency.”
Hubert Davis Approaching UNC Starting Lineup as Fluid Situation
As the North Carolina Tar Heels prepare for the upcoming college basketball season, new head coach Hubert Davis is taking a flexible approach to determining his starting lineup. With a deep and talented roster at his disposal, Davis recognizes the importance of keeping his options open and adapting to different matchups and situations.
Davis has made it clear that he values competition and is willing to make changes to the starting lineup based on performance in practice and games. He has emphasized the need for players to earn their minutes and prove themselves on both ends of the court.
One player who has already caught Davis’ eye is freshman guard D’Marco Dunn, who has shown impressive scoring ability and defensive intensity in early practices. Dunn could potentially earn a spot in the starting lineup if he continues to impress.
Davis has also praised the leadership and experience of veterans like Leaky Black and Brady Manek, who could play key roles in the starting lineup depending on the opponent.
Overall, Davis is embracing the challenge of managing a deep and talented roster and is focused on putting together the best lineup for each game. With a fluid approach to the starting lineup, the Tar Heels will be a team to watch this season as they strive for success in the ACC and beyond.

The Golden State Warriors entered Tuesday night’s game against the Utah Jazz with a major level of desperation for a win.
As the day progressed, it was revealed that the Jazz would be resting a majority of their team and starters. As a result, the Warriors made a few changes of their own. One of those changes included resting Steph Curry as he’s been playing through both a knee and thumb injury. Curry has mentioned that he’s been playing through discomfort with the injury.
Steph Curry is out tonight vs Jazz. Steve Kerr: “Knees are bothering him.” Warriors are hopeful he plays tomorrow vs Thunder.
Due to the Warriors resting Curry, the team will be rolling a new starting lineup against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night. The Warriors will be starting Dennis Schroder, Buddy Hield, Andrew Wiggins, Moses Moody, and Trayce Jackson-Davis.
Warriors starters tonight vs Jazz
Dennis Schröder Buddy Hield Andrew Wiggins Moses Moody Trayce Jackson-Davis
It’s a very peculiar starting lineup for the Warriors because they’re missing Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Jonathan Kuminga. The opportunity will be good for Schroder in particular, especially because he’s struggled so much that he’s already been relegated to the bench.
Even without Curry, Green, and Kuminga, the Warriors should have more than enough firepower to beat the shorthanded Utah Jazz on Tuesday night. Utah will be missing Lauri Markkanen, Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, Walker Kessler, and more.
Jazz Injury Report:
OUT – Jordan Clarkson (left plantar fasciitis – injury management)
If Golden State somehow manages to lose Tuesday night’s game against the Jazz, then it’ll truly be a rock-bottom moment of the season. The Warriors and Jazz face off at 10:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday.
The Golden State Warriors have been forced to make a starting lineup change for their upcoming game against the Utah Jazz due to an injury to one of their key players.
Star guard Stephen Curry will be sidelined for the game after suffering a sprained ankle in their last matchup. In his place, rookie guard Jonathan Kuminga will be getting the start, marking his first career start in the NBA.
While Curry’s absence will undoubtedly be felt, the Warriors have full confidence in Kuminga’s ability to step up and contribute in his absence. The 19-year-old has shown flashes of his potential throughout the season and will now have the opportunity to showcase his skills in a starting role.
Despite the setback, the Warriors remain optimistic about their chances against the Jazz and are determined to continue their strong start to the season. Fans can expect an intense and competitive matchup as the Warriors look to overcome this injury and secure another victory.
