| Old Settler's Music Festival 2010 Early-Bird Wristbands To Go On Sale December 1st | |
 Austin, TX — The nationally celebrated Old Settler’s Music Festival, which recently won an Austin360.com A-List readers poll, will begin selling 2010 early-bird wristbands on December 1, available only at www.oldsettlersmusicfest.org. The 23rd annual roots-music festival will be held, rain or shine, from Tax Day, Thursday, April 15, through Sunday, April 18, 2010.More than 30 acts will perform on four stages in a beautiful setting just south of Austin, Texas: the Salt Lick Pavilion and Camp Ben McCulloch on FM 1826, in the Texas Hill Country. “We’re honored and pleased to be chosen as a favorite by those who attend and love live music festivals,” says Jean Spivey, executive director of Old Settler’s Music Festival, which won Best Festival That’s Not Austin City Limits or South By Southwest. “We look forward to seeing our returning guests and newcomers for a Festival that promises ‘real music done right’ with the local, national and international acts to prove it!” Festival-goers that purchase the ticketless early-bird wristbands will enjoy as much as a 30 percent savings over at-the-gate ticket prices on three- and four-day wristbands with camping. These wristbands include access to a special kick-off show Thursday night in the campground and access to the camp-side events unique to Old Settler’s. No single tickets are available at this time. Available December 1 are the 4-day wristband with campground access (Thursday-Sunday), 3-day wristband with campground access (Friday-Sunday), 3-day no-camping wristband and the all-inclusive Platinum Pass. Early-bird wristbands are available at www.oldsettlersmusicfest.org. Children 12 and younger will be admitted to the Festival free. Camping access will certainly sell out, with about 50 percent of returning festival-goers pitching tents beside Onion Creek. In 23 years, Old Settler’s Music Festival has delivered one of the best roots-music festival experiences in the United States with amazing performances including by Joan Osborne, Iris DeMent, Michelle Shocked, Bruce Hornsby, Yonder Mountain String Band, Patty Griffin, Nickel Creek, Alison Krauss and Union Station, Bela Fleck, Rodney Crowell, Vassar Clements, Del McCoury, Natalie McMaster, Kasey Chambers, and local favorites Ray Wylie Hubbard, The Belleville Outfit, Hayes Carll and The Gourds.
