In the tradition of the TV show from which the Festival was born, the three-day event has always aimed to offer musical discovery for the fans. The 2008 edition serves up a collection of acts from rock to hip-hop, blues to country, singer-songwriter to avant-garde, and all sounds in between including Tegan and Sara, Iron & Wine, G. Love & Special Sauce, Neko Case, Band of Horses, The Swell Season, Silversun Pickups, Gogol Bordello, Gillian Welch, The Black Keys, Against Me!, Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, Hot Chip, Vampire Weekend, Slightly Stoopid, Duffy, and many more.
Austin City Limits Music Festival fans will also get a healthy dose of Lone Star State artists this year including Erykah Badu, Robert Earl Keen, Patty Griffin, Eli Young Band, Kevin Fowler, Flyleaf, Roky Erickson, What Made Milwaukee Famous, Black Joe Lewis & the Honey Bears, and White Denim.
Three-day passes are available for $170 at www.aclfestival.com until sellout or show time. Prices are inclusive of all fees, so no additional charges will be added to the published ticket price at checkout. Festival ticket buyers also have the option of printing tickets themselves to avoid shipping fees. Admission is free for kids ten and under accompanied by a ticketed adult.
In the past two years, Austin City Limits Music Festival has given back over $1 million to its host, the Austin Parks Foundation, for Zilker Park improvements and to fund projects � like new hike and bike trails, off leash dog parks, and greening initiatives � throughout the city of Austin. �We�re thrilled to be associated with one of the country�s premier music festivals. When we combine contributions from the ACL Music Festival with the work of volunteers and the Austin Parks and Recreation Department, the impact on Austin�s parks is tremendous,� notes Charlie McCabe, Executive Director of the Austin Parks Foundation and local beneficiary of the event.
