This weekend Auditorium Shores , lakeside in downtown Austin will be hosting the 10th Anniversary of the AUSTIN URBAN MUSIC FESTIVAL. The festival is the brainchild of the Urban Life Group who realized that although Austin is the "Live Music Capital of the World" if offered little in the way of celebration of African-American artists and their music.

    The Austin Urban Music Festival features award-winning R&B, Funk, Soul, Jazz and Hip-Hop artists and as well as up-and-coming local musicians. The festival has hosted many legendary musicians in the past such as Chaka Khan, Morris Day & the Time, Kool & the Gang, Ray Parker, Jr., Cameo and more.

    The festival will be held on Friday the 27th starting at 3pm and Saturday the 28th starting at 11am.
