McCartney, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/metallica-tickets\">Metallica<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/childish-gambino-tickets\">Childish Gambino<\/a> all earned headlining gigs, as did Arctic Monkeys, Travis Scott and Odesza. Also set to perform are rising stars <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/khalid-tickets\">Khalid<\/a>, Shawn Mendes and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/camila-cabello-tickets\">Camila Cabello<\/a>. Father John Misty, Elle King, Janelle Monae, X Ambassadors, Hozier and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/chvrches-tickets\">Chvrches<\/a> are also confirmed to appear.<\/p>\n<p>Now in it&#8217;s 17th year, Austin City Limits has always kept its lineup diverse. However, the addition of McCartney signifies the festival&#8217;s musical shift. In recent years, rap and hard rock were the prominent genres featured given headliners like Jay-Z, Eminem, Radiohead and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/pearl-jam-tickets\">Pearl Jam<\/a>. The two appear once more in the form of Scott and Metallica, but McCartney&#8217;s participation shakes up the norm by getting an artist so universally known and beloved. A performance from the legendary rocker is particularly special nowadays. Now 75, McCartney remains on the circuit despite a recent string of aging music megastars &#8211; including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/elton-john-tickets\">Elton John<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/paul-simon-tickets\">Paul Simon<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/ozzy-osbourne-tickets\">Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> among others &#8211; deciding to give up their strenuous touring schedules altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Austin City Limits marks the lone North American festival appearance for both McCartney and Metallica this year, whereas other participating artists are no strangers to this year&#8217;s circuit. Khalid, The National and Brockhampton will all appear at Boston Calling this spring, while The National, David Byrne and St. Vincent were featured in this year&#8217;s <a href=\"\/blog\/2018-coachella-lineup\/\">Coachella lineup<\/a>. Other artists like Childish Gambino, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/janelle-monae-tickets\">Janelle Monae<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketclub.com\/concerts\/arctic-monkeys-tickets\">Arctic Monkeys<\/a>\u00a0are seen more extensively, appearing at various festivals as well as embarking on headlining tours throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>Austin City Limits will take place October 5-7 and 12-14 at Zilker Park.
