Lawson Knight

Lawson Knight plays the Lucchese Pop-Up on Friday, September 18, at 2 PM. The pop-up is set up at The University of Texas at Austin, 110 Inner Campus Dr, so it's right on campus rather than at a usual downtown venue. It's a free show, which makes it an easy one to drop into if you're around that part of town on a Friday afternoon.

Knight is a 23-year-old country artist from Round Rock, Texas, so this is a local show in more than one sense. His sound blends traditional country roots with a modern edge, and he's built a reputation on a distinctive voice and songwriting that holds its own. He's known for high-energy performances and a magnetic stage presence, and some have called him one of the most exciting young talents in today's country music landscape. If you've seen him before, you know the energy he brings; if you haven't, this is a good chance to catch it.

This particular date is part of the Lucchese Pop-Up Tour & Concert, which is why the venue is a pop-up on the UT campus rather than a standard club or hall. It's a midday show, too, so you'll be catching him in the middle of the day rather than late at night. The set is just Knight, and it's free to attend. The show starts at 2 PM on Friday, September 18, at 110 Inner Campus Dr.
