All eyes turn to Austin, Texas as the 2012 ACL Music Festival returns to
Zilker Park October 12th - 14th! 75,000 plus music lovers will converge,
on what is widely accepted as the one of the premier music festivals in
the world, to experience more than a hundred bands on eight stages over
three days. Historically, ACLMF has offered a diverse range of musical
fare from chart-toppers to Avant-garde, local heroes to world icons,
internet sensations to full-fledged rock royalty. This year is no
exception, featuring The Black Keys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Neil Young and
Crazy Horse, Florence + The Machine, The Shins, Iggy & The Stooges, Gotye,
Weezer, and many, many more.
 No other radio station in Austin gets you up close and personal with ACL
like KGSR! Listen to us all throughout the weekend as we broadcast live,
with exclusive interviews and live performances from backstage at the 2012
ACL Music Festival. Gotye, The Lumineers, Old 97's and more are all
scheduled to stop by. We'll also be broadcasting live with more live
performances on Friday and Saturday morning from Threadgill's World Head
Quarters! Click here for schedule and broadcast times.
Still not enough ACL to satisfy your music hunger? We've also got tickets
to the Official ACL Late Night shows. Most are already sold out, but we've
got your chance to win here!

 Michael Kiwanuka's leap into the mainstream music is a bit unusual. He released his first album Home Again this past summer, which caught on pretty quickly in his native UK and is spreading around stateside. What's so impressive is that Kiwanuka managed to build an audience as a soul singer, but his sound isn't straight Motown. Between the big horns and swinging beats, he interjects softer, folky-er ballads. You can watch an exclusive KGSR interview with Kiwanuka on our Downtime page and check him out on Saturday at the KGSR live performances at Threadgill's before his appearance at ACL.
