Austin City Limits returns...
Music lovers -- it's time to tell your friends to tune into WPT, as the critically acclaimed live music program, Austin City Limits, returns to the statewide network for a Summer-long engagement. The program gets a two-episode jump start tonight, beginning with a presentation of former Phish front man Trey Anastasio's set at 2004's Austin City Limits Music Festival at 11.At midnight, former surfer Jack Johnson takes to the iconic Austin skyline-backed studio stage with his laid-back island inspired grooves before indie-pop artists Rilo Kiley perform an inspired set.
The second program will repeat Sunday night at 11, which will become the usual timeslot for the show's episodes in the upcoming summer months. Artists that will be featured in the next few weeks include Alison Krauss + Union Station, Kathleen Edwards, Etta James, Ben Folds, Ray Lamontagne, John Prine and Amos Lee. The schedule does change occasionally -- there is no airing Memorial Day weekend and sometimes the program begins a half-hour earlier or later -- so check wpt.org or your copy of Airwaves magazine to find each week's schedule.
