According to a release by SPIN Magazine, Chicago-native hip hop artist Kanye West will join headliners Stevie Wonder and Arcade Fire for the 10th annual Austin City Limits Festival. The Festival will take place in the backbone of the summer on Sept. 16-18 in Austin, Texas.
Kanye's performance at Austin Limits will likely be the cap-off to his seven-festival summer tour that begins in Milwaukee, WI., at Summerfest, moves south to the Superdome, in New Orleans, then goes abroad to Australia, United Kingdom, Norway, Sweden and Finland.
In the four-month tour, Kanye will headline with artists such as Kid Cudi, Panic at the Disco, Mary J. Blige, Boyz II Men, Colplay, Modest Mouse and Wiz Khalifa. At Austin City Limits, the hip hop artist will follow performances by Cee-Lo Green, My Morning Jacket, Iron & Wine, and Fitz & the Tantrums. The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Radiohead are also rumored to headline.
While on tour, West will be promoting his upcoming collaborative album with Jay-Z, called Watch The Throne - Kanye's sixth studio album.
Austin City Limits will be held at Zilker Park. Three-day concert tickets are already sold out, but one-day passes go on sale at Austin City Limits home page.
