Antone’s in Austin just locked down a mind-blowing 50-year lease, securing its spot as a blues legend for decades to come. With $1.3 million from the Austin Cultural Trust, they’re turning the venue into a live music powerhouse and building a blues museum that’ll keep the vibe alive well past their 100th anniversary. While other venues scramble to survive, Antone’s just rewrote the playbook for lasting music culture.
