Festival season is in full swing, and it looks like The Red Hot Chili Peppers are going to have one busy summer. The California rockers, who are headlining Lollapalooza in Chicago this year, have also topped the bill at October's Austin City Limits.
The packed lineup also includes Neil Young and Crazy Horse, the Black Keys, Florence + the Machine, Jack White and the Avett Brothers atop the bill. Newcomers Alabama Shakes, Gotye and the Civil Wars will join the 130-band lineup for the first time this year, while veteran performers like the Roots, Weezer and the Shins will also assemble in Zilker Park for the diverse Texas festival.
