With the Austin City Limits Festival lineup just released, the people behind ACL have announced the inductees and performers for the 2016 Austin City Limits Festival Hall Of Fame Inductions and Celebrations, scheduled for October 12th at the Moody Theater. Three influential artists will get the big honor for 2016: B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, and Kris Kristofferson.
To celebrate these musicians, ACL has put together an awesome list of performers for the occasion, including Willie Nelson, Mavis Staples, Rodney Crowell, Gary Clark Jr. and Taj Mahal. Not only that, but Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally will be on hand to host the evening’s ceremony.
Tickets for the show are on sale now, and the full ceremony will be broadcast as part of the Austin City Limits 42nd season, which features My Morning Jacket, Paul Simon, and more.
