King Daddy & the Flat Five

King Daddy & the Flat Five is an Austin blues and roots project led by guitarist Aaron Frescas—“King Daddy” brings the blues down to the Elephant Room basement on early-evening bills before later jazz sets. The Flat Five format is club-scale blues with jazz-room dynamics: guitar-forward shuffles, soulful leads, and a working-band pocket built for Congress Avenue’s most famous subterranean stage.

Do512, Elephant Room calendars, and live clips frame the group as a regular early-slot fixture—no cover before 8pm energy, serious blues craft. Expect Texas blues guitar and basement swing when King Daddy & the Flat Five play Austin. Ideal for listeners who want real blues before the late jazz headliners.
