Austin City Limits Heritage Collection captured by Scott Newton
Austin City Limits Heritage is a stunning collection of signed limited edition photographic prints, documenting the early days of the longest-running music program in television history.
Scott Newton has been the still photographer for the PBS show since the late 70’s, capturing the numerous prestigious performers that have graced the Austin City Limits stage in the Texas Capitol.
To commemorate Austin City Limits 50 years of music, Modern Rocks Gallery Owner, Steven Walker, has curated a collection of 50 iconic prints from Scott’s extensive ACL archive, available for the first time, brought to you exclusively by Modern Rocks Gallery in conjunction with Austin PBS, KLRU-TV.
“Scott has always captured the essence and spirit of Austin City Limits through his lens. This nostalgic collection brings to life some of the most historic moments of ACL’s formative years”
“After shooting all those great shows, I finally get to share the results with my fellow music lovers! This is exciting; decades of my work made accessible as wall art. It’s a dream come true.”
“I can’t help but feel a profound sense of pride having been given the honor of curating The Austin City Limits Heritage collection. It seems quite fitting that Modern Rocks Gallery hits its 10th anniversary the same year ACL celebrates 50 years of music. Not only visually striking, this collection holds significant importance. Austin City Limits is ingrained in the very fabric of Austin—it’s singular and cherished, much like Scott Newton’s Photography.”
