“ECHOES ATX”: The Past, Present, and Future of Black & Brown Austin

Austin wasn’t just grown from the fruits of Willie Nelson and the Texas Longhorns. Like many metropolitan areas, it had a thriving scene of diverse voices that fed this city’s very roots. Those voices were here, and they’re still here, contributing to everything that makes Austin special. Celebrate them with a two-week extravaganza acknowledging Austin’s rich history and bright future through art, music, and conversation. Curated by photographer Jay Ybarra and sociology scholar Shania Montúfar, “ECHOES” reflects their vibrant views of Austin’s grassroots community creators. Join the opening celebration this Saturday with DJ sets, art workshops, and artistic pieces that beg to be experienced firsthand. It all runs for the next two weeks. – Cat McCarrey

Willie Nelson's Fourth of July Picnic w/ Bob Dylan, the Avett Brothers, the Mavericks, Asleep & the Wheel, Tami Neilson

Ninety-two-year-old progressive cowboy and patron saint of Austin Willie Nelson keeps his annual tradition (since 1973) alive and definitely kickin’ with musical friends like Bob Dylan, the Avett Brothers, and others taking the Circuit of the Americas stage. And since we’re ostensibly celebrating America’s anniversary, there will of course be fireworks to spark whatever patriotism might still be lingering in your soul. He might have a few more scratches, but Trigger, and the man behind the guitar for that matter, still sound like a tumbleweed rolling free. In so many ways, Willie is keeping our hopes alive.
