welcome to homecoming -

our city’s own celebration of the musicians who built Austin’s sound. This is more than a fundraiser; it’s a homegrown movement rooted in gratitude, community, and pride. All November long, Austin venues are coming together to lift up the artists who made this the Live Music Capital of the World. From iconic stages to neighborhood favorites, we’re showing up for our own — raising funds and awareness to help aging musicians stay housed, cared for, and connected to the city they helped shape.

Participating Venues:

Corporate and Community Sponsorships

Local businesses and foundations can become Austin’s HOMEcoming Sponsors, showing their support for Austin’s music legacy. Sponsors receive broad recognition across campaign materials, digital content, and onsite activations.

Kickoff Event

The Austin HOMEcoming Launch Party at Arlyn Studios

Save the Date: October 16th, 2025
We’re kicking off with a celebration at one of Austin’s most iconic spaces - Arlyn Studios - a warm gathering of HOME artists, participating venues, sponsors, longtime supporters, industry leaders, and community champions coming together to celebrate the spirit of coming home - to Austin, to music, to community.

There’ll be live local music (of course), but mostly it’s a chance to just be together - to connect, catch up, and raise a glass to the musicians who’ve made Austin what it is. We’ll have delicious bites and sips from some of our favorite local brands, and a vibe that feels like… well, home.

Let’s toast to a campaign that’s all about keeping our music legends in theirs.


Why it Matters

Austin’s music scene was built by the very artists who now face housing insecurity. Many have played thousands of shows  -  but applause doesn’t pay the rent.

HOME provides year-round housing support, care coordination, and dignity for the musicians who made this city sing.

HOMEcoming is our chance  -  as a music city  -  to give back.

Because we don’t just owe them a hand. We owe them a home.

Miss Lavelle White was HOME’s first client. She helped build Austin’s sound. We’re making sure she ages with dignity.
