\n\tAs Willie Nelson<\/a> likes to say, \u201cYou\u2019re either in Luck or you\u2019re out of Luck<\/a>.\u201d On Thursday, March 19, some fans will most definitely be in Luck when the 14th annual Luck Reunion<\/a> returns to Nelson\u2019s ranch outside of Austin.<\/p>\n \n\tLuck Presents announced the lineup on Wednesday morning. As is tradition, Nelson and the Family Band will headline the daylong festival. Other acts on the bill include St. Vincent<\/a>, Trampled by Turtles<\/a>, Booker T. Jones, Lukas Nelson<\/a>, Ghostland Observatory, Kaitlin Butts<\/a>, Joshua Ray Walker<\/a>, and Particle Kid with Daniel Lanois.<\/p>\n \n\tNelson\u2019s Luck Ranch, technically located in Spicewood, Texas, is the site of an Old West movie set built for 1985\u2019s Red Headed Stranger<\/em>, in which Nelson starred. There\u2019s a saloon, a general store, and a little white church, all of which host various events throughout the Luck Reunion day. At last year\u2019s festival<\/a>, Arcade Fire gave a surprise performance in the saloon that spilled out into the dusty streets.<\/p>\n \n\tThe 2026 Reunion features some notable songwriters\u2019 rounds. A BMI-presented lineup includes Julianna Rankin, Leon Majcen<\/a>, and Emma Ogier, while the Redbird Songwriters Showcase includes James McMurtry, Dallas Burrow, Willis Alan Ramsey, Dale Watson, and Kelly Willis.<\/p>\n \n\tUnlike years past, the 2026 Luck Reunion will be held immediately after the annual SXSW festival, which runs March 12 through 18 in Austin.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to welcome our Luck Family back home to Willie\u2019s backyard for another incredible year,\u201d Matt Bizer, CEO and Founder of Luck Presents, said in a statement. \u201cFourteen years in, Luck Reunion continues to be about bringing people together in meaningful ways. This year\u2019s lineup beautifully represents that spirit, with legendary artists who\u2019ve been part of our story from the beginning, new voices we\u2019re excited to introduce to our community, and more than a few surprise guests that we can\u2019t wait to reveal.\u201d<\/p>\n
