It’s heartbreaking. It’s frustrating. And somehow, the live music needs to keep going, whether it’s through livestreams or socially-distanced shows in huge outdoor spaces. It’s…not quite the same, and most of us look forward to going to shows again, but it’ll work for now. Here’s an event that features both.
Love and Lightstream Drive-In Concert presents three days of live music by ATX artists, drive-in style for safe social distancing, organized to benefit the Austin music community. You can catch the line-ups in your car at the Haute Spot in Cedar Park or via the Love and Lightstream website starting at 6 p.m. (Central) each night, Thursday August 27 through Saturday August 29. Proceeds from ticket sales to the drive-in shows and livestream access benefit the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM) and Black Fret.
Your nightly line-ups:
–Thursday – David Ramirez 9 p.m., Jonathan Terrell 8 p.m., Jaimee Harris 7 p.m., Indian & The Jones 6 p.m.
–Friday – Sir Woman 9 p.m., Jackie Venson 8 p.m., The Bishops 7 p.m., Heart of the City 6 p.m.
–Saturday – …And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead 9 p.m., Quiet Company 8 p.m., Swimming With Bears 7 p.m., Think No Think (featured on today’s AMM) 6 p.m.
