Willie Nelson Plays With Okkervil River At Spotify House

Fans in the Spotify House pop-up at SXSW got a special treat on Sunday when Willie Nelson showed up for a surprise full set filled with his classic songs. This was Nelson’s second appearance of the weekend.

Nelson stopped by the Spotify House on Sunday night to perform a full set from his impressive catalogue of classic country hits alongside his band. The show came a day after his annual performance during the opening night concert at Rodeo Austin.

Willie’s big event is on Friday, when artists from Jenny Lewis and Lucius to Billy Joe Shaver and Jack Ingram gather at his ranch in Spicewood for the Luck Reunion. This year’s show will mark the 30th anniversary for the 82-year-old country singer. 

Spotify House, 1601 E. Sixth St., is an official SXSW venue today through Friday with afternoon performances by acts including Chvrches, Kacey Musgraves, Miguel, Vince Staples and Lucius. Check out spotifyhouse.com for more details.
