In a city crowded with music, do we need another music festival? In the case of Fun Fun Fun Fest, that answer is a definite yes. Now in its eighth year, Fun Fest does things a little differently, from underground music to comedy to, yes, taco cannons. On this week’s edition of the Austin Music Experience, we’ll give you a preview of the Fest with live performances from The Walkmen, Bill Callahan, Washed Out, Lee Fields, as well as some local up-and-comers making their Fun Fest debuts. Plus, we go behind-the-scenes for an unforgettable festival story from the event’s co-creator, James Moody, that involves Danzig, breaking safety barricades, and cremated ashes…
It’s the Austin Music Experience, Fun Fun Fun Fest 2013 edition. Join us Friday at noon and again Friday night at 11pm on KUTX 98.9, or take a listen anytime in the player below.
