If I remember correctly, Johnny Cash sang: \u201cI hear the\u00a0fests a-comin\u2019\/ they\u2019re rolling \u2018round the bend \/ and I ain\u2019t seen live music since I don\u2019t know when.\u201d That\u2019s the sound of \u201cAustin Music Blues.\u201d Despair not, festival season is right around the corner. Yes, we can see live music every night in town if we want to and we\u2019re definitely blessed because of that, but there\u2019s a certain ease and comfort to hearing a carousel of bands in one place. From psychedelic jam acts, electronic dance music and a certain three letter acronym that takes over Zilker Park, get ready to test your endurance at these six upcoming music festivals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Levitation<\/a>\u00a0spawned in the tour van of Austin psych heavies the Black Angels. Launched in 2008 as Austin Psych Fest \u2014\u00a0now resurrected as a separate spring music festival<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 musicians Christian Bland and Alex Maas and their friend Rob Fitzpatrick have made it their mission to put on a grassroots psych showcase with music from around the globe.\u00a0Levitation<\/a>\u00a0has existed in several formats, and this year, organizers\u00a0shifted programming<\/a>\u00a0from a multi-venue structure to a centralized location at the\u00a0Palmer Events Center<\/a>. However, the fest will continue to host individually ticketed late-night shows in the Red River Cultural District during the four-day event. There are too many amazing acts coming to town for me to name them all, so check out the full lineup on the fest’s website. \u2014\u00a0M.S.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
