A major blow hit Austin’s music scene when The Ransom Brothers lost nearly all their gear—about $13,000 worth—after their tour van was broken into right after their first big U.S. tour. Lead singer Sean McHargue described losing his favorite guitar as “like losing a friend.” But what’s really stood out is how quickly Austin’s music community has rallied, offering to lend equipment and help the band keep playing. It’s a reminder of how tight-knit and supportive this city’s creative scene is. How do you think Austin should protect its musicians and keep its culture thriving? #Entertainment #Music #AustinMusic
