The Two Step Inn Lineup Is Out and Tickets Go on Sale Tomorrow.

My Spotify wrapped is always filled with showtunes and Beyoncé and even I know the lineup for Two Step Inn is a good one!

  • Brooks & Dunn and Ella Langley are headlining the 2027 festival. Two Step Inn runs April 17-18 in San Gabriel Park in Georgetown. Brooks & Dunn is headlining April 17 and Ella Langley will close out the country music festival on April 18. Other artists include: Sheryl Crow, Parker McCollum, Michelle Branch, Flatland Calvary, Whiskey Myers, Josh Abbott Band, and more. [Two Step Inn]
  • Langley just broke a big record. Langley’s song “Choosin’ Texas” just spent its 23rd week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking the longest run ever on the chart and surpassing Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” [Billboard]
  • Tickets start at $179. You can buy tickets starting at noon tomorrow (unless you’re a Georgetown resident, then you can buy tickets now!) Tickets range from $179 for a one-day pass and $299 for a two-day badge. VIP options are available and start at $489. [Two Step Inn]
  • The festival is still in its infancy. Two Step Inn debuted in 2023 with Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers headlining. I covered the festival’s second year and truly had so much fun! It’s the perfect Texas festival — two-stepping platforms accompanied the audience areas, western outfits were everywhere, and it was small enough to experience a little bit of everything.

  • The merch is really cute! Listen, I’m only human. Of course I’m interested in a cute T-shirt! The two-steppin’ T-shirt and the longhorn flag T-shirt may end up in my closet. [Two Step Inn]

Where Austin Burger Icons Eat in Town

Patrick and Kathy Terry may be the founders of P. Terry’s, Austin’s iconic burger joint, but they can’t eat burgers 24/7! So, where do burger legends go when they eat out? Julio’s in Hyde Park, for one. [City Cast Austin]

NHL Slow To Come to Texas
