Programs

July 8, 2016 6:00pm - 9:00pm

Music Under the Star is a free concert series held each July in the Bullock Museum's Lone Star Plaza. The public is invited to experience free concerts under the iconic Bullock Museum Star from 6 to 9 p.m. with complimentary garage parking. Bring the whole family, camp chairs, and blankets to enjoy an incredible lineup of Texas artists.

Please note: Food, beer, and soda are available for purchase at all MUTS concerts.

Kicking off the 2016 Music Under the Star series on July 8 is The Midnight Stroll, featuring Ghostland Observatory frontman Aaron Behrens and Jonas Wilson (previously from Lomita and White White Lights) on guitar. The Midnight Stroll is a crack team of Austin musicians that blends elements of soulful rock and heartfelt blues into a refreshing sound.

Opening at 6 p.m. is Walker Lukens, whose soulful, emotive tenor and alt-pop songwriting have been compared to Harry Nilsson to Tom Waits and Pavement. After fronting other bands, the Austin, Texas-based Lukens released Year of the Dog EP and the full length, Devoted, in 2013. They received unanimous praise from outlets like NPR, American Songwriter, Austin-American Statesman, Austin Chronicle, Houston Chronicle, and Billboard.
