Sabrina Carpenter Steals the Show at Austin City Limits Festival

AUSTIN, Texas — Last weekend, singer Sabrina Carpenter electrified the audience at the Austin City Limits festival, creating unforgettable moments. The crowd erupted when Carpenter playfully mock-cuffed fellow musician Djo after the two became Instagram friends.

As Carpenter lit up the stage, she set a high bar for the festival’s second weekend. Her vibrant performance blended country and pop, energizing the attendees. “The combination of country royalty and viral chaos is unmatched,” said one fan.

Anticipation builds as viewers speculate if Dolly Parton will join Carpenter for weekend two. Parton recently posted a video on Instagram to reassure fans that she is “not dead yet,” which Carpenter promptly shared. The two artists collaborated on a song featured on Carpenter’s album, hinting at a potential surprise at ACL.

During the week between ACL weekends, Carpenter received an introduction from Sheryl Crow, who lauded Carpenter’s talent. Crow, a country music icon, and Carpenter share a similar stage presence, which fans loved.

Another artist, Doechii, who performs right before Carpenter on the same stage, embodies a carefree spirit, contributing to the festival’s fun atmosphere. Carpenter often brings a playful vibe to her performances, hinting that she might mock-cuff someone else during her set.

Indie singer-songwriter Djo, known for his humorous self-comparisons to different pop stars, could also be a playful target for Carpenter’s on-stage antics. Fans hope they’ll see a humorous moment unfold between the two.

Lastly, Texas native and Hulu star appears to be gaining traction at ACL, thanks to his viral TikTok presence. If he shows up wearing burnt orange after the Texas vs. OU game, fans believe Carpenter will have to playfully include him in her set.

With the festival’s vibes continuing into weekend two, excitement remains high for what Carpenter and her fellow artists will bring to the stage.
