Week Two of the 2016 ACL Festival is just around the corner, slated to take over Zilker Park in Austin, TX this October 7-9. While you already have your heart set on catching festival headliners like Radiohead, Kendrick Lamar, LCD Soundsystem, and Mumford & Sons, there are still a ton of bands on the roster that deserve your full attention.
The three-day event can seem pretty overwhelming, so we’ll make it easy on you. From Cage The Elephant to Margo Price to July Talk and more, our 2016 ACL Festival picks would never steer you wrong.
Here’s who you should see and why…
