Love Austin Music Month

Music is the heartbeat of Austin. That’s why the City of Austin Music and Entertainment Division and KUTX have teamed up once again to declare January Love Austin Music Month. We want you to be part of it, too! Here are a few ways to support your music scene this month:

  • Keep up with all the local shows this month with the Austin Music Minute.
  • Kick off Love Austin Music Month with Red River Cultural District’s annual Free Week January 5-6, 2024.
  • Join us Friday, January 5th our Free Week Showcase at Stubb’s on 801 Red River St.
    • SL Houser @ 9 p.m.
    • promqueen @10:15 p.m.
    • Never @ 11:15 p.m.

  • Help get #loveaustinmusic trending on social media in Austin!
  • Pledge to turn 5 friends outside of Austin on to 5 Austin-area artists.
  • Amplify your favorite Austin artists’ videos on social

Now more than ever, Austin music needs your support. Make a gift in honor of Love Austin Music Month to one of the many non-profit organizations that support Austin music. These are just a few to consider …

  • If you can afford to, buy music and merch from your Austin artists on their websites. (A band shirt makes a great Valentine’s gift for an out-of-town music-lover or Austin ex-pat.)
  • While you watch live streams, tip like it’s the holidays! Some performing artists use Venmo or other platforms to collect extra revenue during performances.
  • When you’re out and about this month, consider carrying a little cash so you can show some love for your local busker (who may one day be a GRAMMY nominee, like this guy.
  • Are you an Austin musician yourself? We’d love to hear you on the airwaves! Submit your music to our Song of the Day feature.
