Austin City Limits is recorded live in Austin, Texas, by Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) member television station KLRU, and broadcast on many PBS stations around the United States. With its first series airing in 1976, ACL is the only television show to receive North America’s National Medal of Arts, which it was awarded in 2003.
“The key to ACL’s marathon success story is our commitment to the best, most original music being created,” long time Austin City Limits executive producer Terry Lickona said in a statement. “No matter what gender, genre, style or era, we have always delivered a remarkable mix of compelling, heartfelt, and ground-breaking performers. Season 44 delivers on that promise once again.”
