Entering multiple times does not improve your chances of winning and multiple entries will be deleted. A random drawing is conducted to determine the winners of the Space Available passes. Passes are not transferable or for sale.
You will be notified via email if you have won tickets to a taping; the email will contain further instructions. Two passes per person are allowed. Please be in Austin or the surrounding community. A pass does NOT guarantee admission to a taping. KLRU will admit as many ticket holders as our capacity limit allows. That limit is set by the State Fire Marshal and is strictly enforced. In order to be assured of a full house for the taping, KLRU distributes tickets in excess of our capacity to account for “no-shows.”
If you are in Austin for a visit you are welcome to follow the giveaway process detailed here. Unfortunately, KLRU cannot accommodate special out-of town requests. However, another way to get the Austin City Limits experience is to attend the Austin City Limits Music Festival, or attend a scheduled concert at ACL Live at The Moody Theater, the new home of Austin City Limits.
ABOUT The Marías
The Marías are the psychedelic-soul lovechild of Puerto Rican-bred, Atlanta-raised María Zardoya and Los Angeles native, Josh Conway. The pair are joined by their closest friends, Jesse Perlman on guitar and Edward James on keys. The Marías’ undeniably intuitive musical chemistry is evident in their smooth blend of jazz percussion, hypnotic guitar riffs, smoke-velvet vocals and nostalgic horn solos. There’s something irresistibly sensual in their dreamlike fusion of jazz, psychedelia, funk and lounge. Since the 2021 release of their critically acclaimed debut, Cinema, which paid homage to their early days of writing for film and television, the Marías have earned countless accolades and collaborations with some of the biggest names in Latin music, including Bad Bunny and Tainy. Their highly anticipated follow-up, Submarine, represents the next phase of their fascinating sonic journey. Stepping back into the psychedelic indie rock roots that defined their 2017 breakout EP, Superclean, the recent album delivers on a feeling of nostalgia, a sense that you’ve been here before but the geography has evolved. The cinematic swells of their debut have been traded for a sonically matured return to form for an album that Josh calls the “bookend to their trilogy.” A study in aloneness, the evocative ache of Submarine feels, at times, inescapable, as one is faced with what it means to choose solitude, and the pain and beauty so inextricably interwoven within it. It embodies the grief in something as innately human as separation. María’s hypnotic vocals transport listeners to a place of solitude and exploration. The detail that defines their cinematic style off-stage is brought to life during ethereal live performances as the group delivers striking visuals that beautifully complement their dreamy songs, creating an indisputably unique and transportive experience. This bespoke live Submarine show was on full display to rapturous audiences in buzzed-about sets at 2024’s ACL Fest and their recent Coachella appearances. The Marías are currently on a sold-out extended U.S. headlining tour with upcoming festival dates including Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees, and All Things Go.
