ACL Predictions, More Measles in Austin, and Skylark’s Last Weekend

There’s a second case of the measles in Austin — and this time, it’s in a vaccinated adult. On today’s Friday News Roundup, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Hey Austin newsletter editor Kelsey Bradshaw and executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec to talk about how the city is responding to the statewide outbreak amid federal funding cuts, and what Austinites should be doing now to be protected. Plus, the lineup for ACL Festival comes out soon, so we’re sharing our predictions for this year’s throwback band, and sharing our recommendations for what to do this weekend. At the top of our list: Celebrate the Skylark Lounge’s last weekend before the legendary blues bar closes for good.
