Backline

Backline is heading to Austin this weekend to celebrate the impact we've made over the past 5 years in bringing mental health and wellness resources to the music industry. If you're heading down for Weekend 2, we hope you'll join us at W Hotel Austin for Wellness Days, taking place 9-11am on Friday, October 11th and Saturday October 12th! We'll have complimentary breathwork, sound baths, and a tea ceremony courtesy of The Den Ritual plus yoga, massage, IV drips, B12 shots and more. Coffee and smoothies will be served and the pool will be open for swimming! The first 25 people each day will receive a complimentary take.care wellness kit, full of goodies to keep you feeling healthy, on or off the road. This is the perfect opportunity to rest, reset, and restore before the festival starts. We hope to see you there, and please share this with any artists or industry folks who will be in town!
