Well, it’s been awhile since the last update because of the upcoming changes to the website. Because of the changes, we won’t be able to attend this year’s Austin City Limits. Here are the best acts to see if you are out in Austin this weekend. There’s a Spotify playlist at the bottom for easy listening.
Headliners
You can’t really go wrong with any of the headlining acts, but here are the ones we recommend to catch for a visual and aural treat. Kings of Leon are not worth it, so don’t go to them.
Runners Up: The Cure, Lionel Richie, Phoenix, Wilco
Undercard
It was pretty difficult to choose the top 3 for the undercard, but here’s our list.
Bags of Fun: Grimes, Portugal. The Man, Franz Ferdinand, Divine Fits, Local Natives, Vampire Weekend, Smith Westerns, Electric Guest, Reignwolf
Rap/R&B: Kendrick Lamar, Autre Ne Veut
Mosh Friendly: Queens of the Stone Age
