ACL 2019: Flora Cash

Saturday at 12:30pm.  I've heard this song a hundred times on KUTX but never knew the band.  It's a married duo who met online.  He's from Minneapolis and she's from Sweden.  As Wikipedia says: "Lleshaj, from Stockholm, and Randall, from Minneapolis, met in 2012 on SoundCloud when Lleshaj began commenting on the tracks Randall had posted and the two discovered they appreciated each other's music.".  The rest is history.

Opposite this band is Orville Peck.  He's the openly gay masked country singer that sold out Mohawk recently.  I can't remember if he was inside or outside, though.  I like his album and his stage act should be interesting.  He reminds me of a mix of The The, Morrissey, and Roy Orbison. 

The other option at this time is local rapper Abhi the Nomad.  He has gotten lots of airplay on KUTX as well.

I'd be happy seeing all three of these but I'm leaning towards Orville Peck.
