Luck Reunion has revealed the lineup for its 2018 festival taking place at Willie Nelson‘s ranch in Luck, Texas, on March 15. In partnership with Southwest Airlines and anchored by a headlining set by Willie and his family, Luck Reunion will welcome more than 40 artists from a wide range of genres, including: Particle Kid, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Kurt Vile, Nikki Lane, Waxahatchee, Josh Ritter, Lily Hiatt, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Ezra Furman, Aaron Lee Tasjan, and many more.
Luck Reunion and Southwest made an early trip to Luck, Texas, to reveal the 2018 Reunion performers and the Southwest Artist On The Rise To Luck competition finalists. As the cameras rolled, comedian Billy Wayne Davis and 2017’s Artist On The Rise, Devon Gilfillian, took over the Luck World Headquarters to make the big announcement with the help of some special guests. Davis called Josh Hedley to let him know he’d landed the gig and, impressively, managed to get Willie himself on the line. Artists in the running for the On The Rise To Luck competition include: Mt. Joy from Los Angeles, Thomas Csorba from Houston, Marty O’Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra from San Francisco, Kirby Brown from Dallas, and Hugh Masterson from Milwaukee. Fans can vote for their choice at southwest.fm/luck-reunion-2018.
