With (re)opening night less than a month away, the Bunkhouse has unveiled more of its fall music schedule, highlighted by some interesting touring acts and many of Las Vegas’ best-known local names.

Among the new additions to the lineup: dream-pop trio Blonde Redhead (last seen in Las Vegas at Vegoose 2007) on November 14, electronic act Washed Out (which packed Beauty Bar to capacity last August) on September 28 and ex-Soul Coughing frontman Mike Doughty on October 19 with Las Vegas-based singer-songwriter Richard Grewar.

Electronic project Big Data lands at the Downtown venue September 19 with Wizdumb and Moxcie, and LA psych-rockers The Entrance Band play September 3. Other touring headliners include Cheers Elephant (September 13), Concrete Blonde’s Johnette Napolitano (October 8) and Saintseneca (October 18).
