Nickel Creek—Chris Thile, Sara Watkins, and Sean Watkins—will tape a performance for Austin City Limits on Monday, August 25, at ACL Live at The Moody Theater, in Austin, Texas. The recently reunited Americana trio returns with its first new music in nine years and for its third appearance on the PBS series Austin City Limits, the longest-running live music television series, now celebrating its 40th season. Chris Thile also visited the show with Punch Brothers; Sara Watkins recently appeared on the show with the Decemberists. For free passes to the show, starting about a week before the taping, visit acltv.com and follow the show on Facebook and Twitter for notice of postings.

Nickel Creek, which released its Nonesuch Records debut album, A Dotted Line, earlier this year, is currently touring the United States with The Secret Sisters, Josh Ritter, and Sarah Jarosz performing as special guests along the way. The band's recent set at Pickathon in Oregon was described by The Oregonian as a "perfect performance ... their three-part vocals sounded less like harmonies than chords from a single instrument." Nickel Creek's August 23 show at ACL Live at the Moody Theatre with Jarosz is already sold out. For additional tour dates and details, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

To pick up a copy of A Dotted Line, head to iTunes or the Nonesuch Store, where vinyl and CD orders include a free MP3 download of the complete album at checkout; MP3 and FLAC lossless files are also available to purchase there.

    Composer and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire’s honey from a winter stone is out January 17, 2025, on Nonesuch Records. The album, which Ambrose calls a “self-portrait,” features improvisational vocalist Kokayi, pianist Sam Harris, Chiquitamagic on synthesizer, drummer Justin Brown, and the Mivos Quartet. Akinmusire says, “In many respects this entire work is inspired by and is an homage to the work of the composer Julius Eastman and his organic music concept." The opening track, “muffled screams,” is out now.
