Austin City Limits has announced Wilco, Lucinda Williams, and Texas singer-songwriter Alejandro Escovedo as its newest inductees into its Hall of Fame. A ceremony with still-unannounced live performances will take place on October 28 from Austin, Texas.

The long-running public television institution established its Hall of Fame in 2014 to honor artists who’ve had a significant impact on its 47-year history, such as Willie Nelson, Townes Van Zandt, and Bonnie Raitt. Its expansive music festival offshoot is still slated for two weekends earlier in October, with headliners including George Strait, Stevie Nicks, Billie Eilish, Miley Cyrus, and DaBaby.

Earlier this year, Lucinda Williams’ family shared news that she had suffered a stroke in late 2020. Her husband Tom Overby said that she was expected to make a full recovery, and she’s currently set to tour with Jason Isbell beginning later this month.
