Hello and welcome to How Did I Get Here? From The Vault! Today we go back to episode 745 Live at Austin City Limits Music Festival with Jackie Venson and Kydd Jones. This show was originally released on 10/29/18. These conversations were recorded live on stage after Jackie and Kydd's sets at ACL Fest on different weekends. They've both had a couple of insane years since we had these conversations. Below are my original notes form the show.  This year I was invited by Austin Music Foundation and ACL Cares to do a couple of live podcasts at Austin City Limits Music Festival. So, the first weekend, I got to sit down with guitar hero, Jackie Venson after she tore up the Tito's stage on Saturday, October 6th about her journey to ACL, releasing a single a month, touring Europe 4 times this year and more! Go to jackievenson.com for all things Jackie Venson. On Sunday, October 14th I sat down with hip-hop artist, Kydd Jones after his scorching set about his journey to ACL, the Austin hip-hop scene, the LNS Crew and more! Go to kyddjones.com for all of your Kydd Jones needs. I had a blast chatting with these fine folks. I'd like to thank Jackie and Kydd for taking the time on a very busy day to sit down and chat. I'd like to thank the fine folks at Austin Music Foundation and Austin City Limits Festival especially, Jennifer Dugas and Emily Miller.
