Presented by Southwest Airlines and KUT Radio with performances from
Austin, TX — Jan. 30, 2019 — Luck Reunion, the flagship festival of Luck Productions, is pleased to announce the third installment of their fan-forward ticket buying initiative, Lucky Draw Live. On Feb. 7th, fans looking to get lucky with tickets to the festival will be treated to an intimate performance from Hayes Carll andSouthwest® On The Rise to Luck 2018 winner, Thomas Csorba at the legendary Cactus Cafe on the campus of the University of Texas at Austin. Since 1979, Cactus Cafe has been a refuge for songwriters, Texans, and music fans, which aligns directly with Luck’s motto of “celebrating the legacies still among us, while lifting up the new crop of individuals who share a respect for those who blazed the trails before them.”
The event, presented by Southwest Airlines and KUT Radio, is centered around Luck Reunion’s lineup announcement for 2019, but will also feature special Luck-centric door prizes, and a chance for fans to buy tickets for Luck Reunion in-person. A pool of 300 Luck Reunion tickets will go on sale at 5:30 pm at the Cactus Cafe ticket office. Out of respect for the university, fans are being asked to arrive no earlier than 4:00 pm. Doors to the venue will open at 6:45 pm CST, with the show starting at 7:00 pm. For those fans not able to attend, KUT will announce the Luck Reunion 2019 lineup on-air during the event.

Lucky Draw Live will also reveal the three 2019 Southwest: On The Rise to Luck artists, who have been selected from dozens of submissions to vie for a performance slot on the Luck Reunion main stage. These finalists will be featured on Southwest.fm, allowing website visitors to learn more and vote to help one artist rise to the stage and join the Luck Family. Thomas Csorba, who is last year’s Southwest: On The Rise to Luck winning artist, will announce the 2019 Luck Reunion line-up. Since 2015, Southwest’s Artist On The Rise program has supported up-and-coming talent to reach new heights in their careers.
After the Feb. 7th event at Cactus Cafe, there will be one remaining “Lucky Draw” with details available only on Luck Reunion’s Instagram and Facebook. These four Lucky Draws are Luck’s answer to fans looking for a smoother ticket buying process, allowing patrons to submit for their chance to buy tickets without racing the clock or cursing their internet connection.
Luck Reunion presented by Southwest, will take place on March 14th in Luck, TX, less than thirty miles outside of Austin, and feature both artists who have defined American music and artists who are redefining it. Luck Reunion performers, or “Luck Family” as they’ve grown to be called, all take after the event’s gracious host, free-wheeling legend Willie Nelson, in that they bow to nothing but inspiration, refuse to play it safe, and are always open for collaboration. In between once in a lifetime sets from their favorite new artists, fans will have plenty of chances to refuel in style with food options curated by Austin Food + Wine, celebrating Central Texas chefs who are pushing boundaries and redefining what it means to have a cookout in the Hill Country.
