Your A-List: Best Radio-Sponsored Event/Series
Nothing says (or sounds like) “summer” like KGSR’s Blues on the Green, with 27 percent of the vote, winner of the Your A-List poll for Best Radio-Sponsored Event/Series.
The free concert series which has seen incarnations at several venues over the past 20 years, offers a cool musical respite from Austin’s brutal heat. Each week during the summer, many of them KGSR listeners, flock to Zilker Park to hear music from such acts as Los Lonely Boys and Marcia Ball. The traffic jams, stream of pedestrians down Barton Creek Road and tunes wafting over South Austin have become an Austin tradition.
