ATXM Night Shift isn’t just an event—it’s part of a bigger movement to support working musicians across Central Texas through advocacy, education, and community.

The Austin Texas Musicians Fund (ATXM) is the foundational nonprofit dedicated to advocacy, education, and economic development for Austin’s musicians and venues.

Night Shift is one of the ways we bring the community together — building connections that strengthen the local music ecosystem.

Space is limited and these events fill up quickly.
