Austin Volunteer Orchestra will be performing a last minute gig at Austin favorite Ruta Maya Coffee Shop on Thursday, 2/11….show gets kicked off at 9pm, and its FREE so we’d love to see you out! AVO members Megan Heavlin Ochoa and yours truly, D Brown Fisher, will be serenading some sweet acoustic beats in the middle of the full band sets with AVO, and surprise special guests bringing it all home! It’s gonna be another great night of music for your listening pleasure, so come if you can! Did we mention…no cover!?

And starting in March, you can see AVO every Monday night from 8-11:30pm, all FREE shows! More information coming soon.

There’s lots of great music from AVO planned for Spring 2010. But we’ll get it all started with an Aquarian Celebration at Austin’s own Ruta Maya on Thursday, January 28, 2010 (9 pm – 1am). The amazing Killa Dilla and Amadillo Road open the show.

Well, the cat’s out of the bag as they say. Austin Volunteer Orchestra (AVO) planned on meeting you in 2010. But demand has been so strong – and our rehearsals going so well – that we’ve decided to make a place at our Thanksgiving table for you! On Thursday, November 26, 2009, catch AVO at Austin’s premiere coffee house and coffee importer Ruta Maya.

Music starts at 9 pm. But get there early, because there will be a Potluck Dinner from 7-9pm. Feel free to bring your own tasty vittles for others and share in the generosity of your fellow Austinites!
