KUT and KUTX news and music podcasts for Austin, Texas and beyond
If you’re in the mood for some soothing, emotional indie out at ACL, look no further than Julia Jacklin. The Sydney singer put out her highly-acclaimed and deeply personal sophomore album Crushing earlier this year, and brought her narratives of heartbreak to Studio 1A not long after that.
Jacklin plays both Sundays on the Honda stage, and next Saturday at The Parish, so after you brave the Billie Eilish crowd for “Bad Guy”, stop by the same stage the next day for “Good Guy”.

For years now, we’ve been in a bit of a cuffing season with former KUTX Artist of the Month Skateland‘s synth-driven dream pop that’s as delectable and ethereal as the roller rink of his stage name origins.
