I expect L’Impératrice to bring all the grooves with their funky tunes and all the quirkiness with matching kitschy outfits. This will be part one of our two-hour French-band experience, as they are immediately followed by Phoenix. L’Impératrice is a pop-disco band from Paris. That act for me is without a doubt, L’Impératrice. The beauty of festivals is discovering an unknown band from the lineup release and then spending several months getting hyped for that new find. While we might not get to see an orchestra on stage this Sunday, it will be exciting to see her display her range of musical stylings. Webster’s latest release “Car Therapy Sessions” introduces a slower, orchestral sound. Her song “Better Distractions” made President Obama’s favourite songs of 2020 and will surely be a favourite of the crowd. Her albums keep her mellow voice always interesting and seemingly floating above the music and we are eager to see what she’s like in person. Webster will surely soothe the crowd with her blend of blues, country, and 70s pop. I have a feeling a lot of people are going to be blown away and talking about his set all weekend long.Ītlanta native Faye Webster will be anchoring the afternoon slots on Sunday with her smooth vocals.
Strings will be playing the sub-headliner slot right before The Chicks on Friday. While seeing him for the first time in August, I was mesmerised by his voice, visuals, and guitar playing. His hypnotic bluegrass-Americana vibe has attracted him a passionate following that rivals that of The Grateful Dead or Phish in their early inception. Strings has exploded on the scene in the past few years and is primed to be headlining festivals for the next 40 years. This is my candidate for best show of the weekend. While we can’t wait for the headliners, Taylor, Waytao, and Nathan (myself) have circled five unmissable shows. The festival is known for being so close to its beautiful downtown, having incredible BBQ all around, and being very family friendly. There are several additions to the Weekend Two lineup that weren’t playing last weekend, from Boy George and the Culture Club to Death Cab for Cutie to Phoenix. ACL began in 2002 and has grown in popularity and volume to be a two-week festival. The AU Review crew have touched down in Austin, Texas and we are ready to take on one of the best music festivals in the world. But lucky for us and tens of thousands more, the fun isn’t even close to being done. Weekend one was a huge success and saw top headlining sets from P!nk, The Chicks, Flume, and Red Hot Chili Peppers. So if you aren’t in Austin this weekend (or next), you know what to do.Ĭheck out the streaming schedule below and visit Hulu for more details.We are just a day away from weekend two of the Austin City Limits Music Festival and Zilker Park is ready to rock just as hard – if not harder – this time around. Spoon, Paramore, Kacey Musgraves, Kevin Morby, Jazemine Sullivan, James Blake, Cassandra Jenkins, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Goose-believe it or not, that’s still just a small sampling of the artists that will be appearing this weekend to continue the Austin City Limits legacy of bringing a broad swath of exciting sounds to the public. The alt.pop quirkiness of Japanese Breakfast, the moody rock of War on Drugs, and the sounds of hip-hop hero Big Boi of Outkast fame will all be a part of the mix too, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. On the rootsier side, Austin o.g.’s Asleep at the Wheel will be serving up their neo-Western Swing sound, and modern bluegrass hotshot Billy Strings and country queens The Chicks will be on hand as well.
