Best of ACL

This weekend, Hubby and I headed to Austin for Austin City Limits, which was a complete blast! Complete with getting rained on Saturday, and then sunburned Sunday! There was plenty of amazing music to be heard, and the hardest part about going is there just isn't enough time to see everyone that is playing.
Oh, and did I mention some of Austin's top food vendors were there? From Torchy's Tacos to Amy's Ice Cream, the food did not disappoint either.

For today's post, I thought I would share some of my favorite bands that were featured at ACL. I'm especially loving Alt-J (his CD was just realeased in the US) and I was really glad to hear something other than "Somebody That I Used To Know" by Gotye. They are actually really good!

Gotye





The Shins





Florence and the Machine





Alt-J





Two Door Cinema Club





Have you heard of any good music or gone to any concerts lately? 
I love hearing about new music!

Happy Hump Day!

Love love love The Shins! And Two Door cinema Club! Ah I am so jealous of you. I'll have to check out Alt-J when I get home, I am always looking for new music. Did you get to see RHCP? Glad you had fun!

I heard that they're splitting it up into two weekends next year, which should alleviate the crowds. Did you get to see The Lumineers?

I was just saying that I want to go to this one year! I hear Austin has the best music scene.
