The lineup for this year's Austin City Limits Festival (September 26-28) is now official, and among the performers is Conor Oberst, playing with his newly formed Mystic Valley Band. The project, which also includes Rilo Kiley drummer Jason Boesels and Oberst's Team Love label artist Nik Freitas, premiered before unsuspecting concertgoers in Minneapolis over the winter. The crew quickly headed for Mexico to lay it down in the studio. Hit up the concerts page at Hypeful.com to download the entire show (with a few Bright Eyes tunes thrown in), and look for the Conor Oberst LP to hit stores August 5 on Merge Records.
