That’s a Wrap: BMI Orchestrates Another Ace ACL Festival Stage

BMI continued its sponsorship of the Austin City Limits Music Festival September 26-28 in Austin, Texas. The BMI stage claimed its traditional shady spot near the festival’s main entrance and offered attendees an eclectic mash-up of Texas roots, southern rock, and funky folk courtesy of tastemakers and buzz-inducing up-and-comers Ben Cyllus, Paula Nelson, Sunny Sweeney, Bobby Bare, Jr., Ryan Bingham, Donavon Frankenreiter, Bonnie Bishop, We Go to 11, Band of Heathens, City and Colour, American Bang, Elizabeth Wills, Belleville Outfit, The Massacoustics, Colour Revolt and South Austin Jug Band.
