Sunday at 3pm. This would be my first choice if we had the time to see her. She's on the vrbo stage which is across Barton Springs Road. A long way from Tito's. The other choices besides Koffee are Bea Miller, a 20 year-old pop singer that competed on the X Factor. She was a little too poppy for me. The other option is rapper IDK.
Shura is the moniker of British-born Aleksandra Lilah Yakunina-Denton. Electropop/synthpop. Her new album was released on Secretly Canadian Records.
"BKLYNLDN" is very chill.

ACL 2019: Koffee
Sunday at 3pm. Yola plays until 3:30 so we won't be able to catch any full sets at this time. This is the closest stage to Tito's. It's 19 year-old Mikayla Simpson from Kingstown, Jamaica. The New Yorker says she is modernizing reggae and states: "To understand both the history and the future of Jamaican music, listen to Koffee."

ACL 2019: Shandon Sahm
Sunday at 1:45. Playing after Ley Line on the Tito's stage is Doug Sahm's son/former Meat Puppets drummer Shandon Sahm. He just released a cover album of his dad's songs called "Sahm Covers Sahm" and is out on tour promoting it.
At 2pm we have two choices, IDLES and Joseph. I know you have no interest in IDLES but I'd like to check them out. You can wander over to Joseph.
We can meet up at 2:45 at Titos for Yola. I'm beyond excited to see that show.

ACL 2019: Kat Dahlia
Sunday at 1:15pm. This Cuban-American singer/rapper from Miami (but now based in L.A.) is playing the small BMI stage. I'm not sure why as it looks like she's quite popular. The Youtube video below has 53M views. That's much more than the other 3 artists at this time.
According to this article she took a 2-year hiatus and is now recording new material. This song was her first big hit back in 2013.

ACL 2019: Duckwrth
Sunday at 1:15pm. This rapper/singer was at SXSW and I previewed him then. I predicted he'd be at ACL. I'm getting good at this.
NPR has an article on him.
This song came out since SXSW. It's pretty good.
