You may now her from her biggest acting role on Gossip Girl but, these days, Taylor Momsen spends her time rocking with The Pretty Reckless. If you’ve never seen the band before, here’s your chance. The band will be at ACL Live this summer, and that’s not all. Paris Jackson will be there too!
Taylor Momsen and The Pretty Reckless Return to Austin
The Pretty Reckless North American headlining tour will make a stop in Austin on July 23, 2026, at ACL Live at The Moody Theater. The tour follows the band’s return with new music after several years and comes on the heels of major festival appearances and dates alongside AC/DC.
Austin has always embraced hard rock, alternative and grunge-inspired acts, making it a natural stop for The Pretty Reckless. In fact, they’ve made many appearances in the ATX over the years. We first caught their act during one of Perez Hilton’s infamous SXSW parties in 2011.
Why Taylor Momsen Continues to Dominate Modern Rock
Since the band’s debut, they’ve earned multiple number one rock singles and become a fixture at major rock festivals around the world. Momsen’s unmistakable vocals, honest songwriting and commanding stage presence have helped The Pretty Reckless stand apart in today’s rock scene.
Their upcoming album, Dear God, signals another evolution for the band, with the lead single “When I Wake Up” showcasing the darker, emotionally charged sound fans have come to expect.
