Southern rocker Elle King brings new hit 'Shame' upon ACL Fest

The Elle King show at the Austin City Limits Music Festival for weekend two kept it PG-13.

AUSTIN — In Austin, it seems you can't turn on the radio without hearing those distinctively raspy vocals from blues rocker Elle King.

The "Ex's and Oh's" singer brought her famous vocal chords to both weekends of the 2018 Austin City Limits Music Festival with performances on the HomeAway stage.

The daughter of actor Rob Schneider and model London King, Elle King has also toured with acts such as Of Monsters and Men, Train, James Bay, The Dixie Chicks and Michael Kiwanuka. Her other hits include "Shame" and "Under the Influence" and "America's Sweetheart."

It was viewer discretion advised as the foul-mouthed southern rock songstress took the HomeAway stage Sunday, Oct. 14, bringing “Shame” upon the festival.

Her hit was accompanied by other more shameless songs about “***hole women,” intoxicating substances, “putting out on the first date,” and getting kicked out of places.

“Anybody been kicked out of a place,” King howled to the crowd. “I’ve been kicked out of a lot of places! The problem with that is sometimes you wanna get back in.”

Garbed in a cowboy hat with two golden braids and a red bandana tucked in her back pocket in true southern fashion, King also took some time to groove and shimmy in between sips of beer as her band, The Brethren, jammed behind her on trumpet and trombone.

“I love you guys,” King laughed after performing a song during which she flashed her left breast not once, but twice. “This is fun as hell.”
