AUSTIN (KXAN) — As more than 20,000 spectators trickled into Q2 Stadium for Austin FC’s inaugural home game June 19, Austin-based singer-songwriter Aaron Stephens geared up for his biggest performance yet. Stationed on the pitch mere feet from Matthew McConaughey, he performed a funky guitar rendition of the National Anthem — no pressure, he said.
“I was so excited. That there’s the biggest crowd I’ve ever played in front of,” he said. “Honestly, Matthew McConaughey was like, over there, and like, I was just a little nervous too, you know, ’cause you definitely want to perform that song right. That’s a very important song.”
