Visa Cash App Racing Bulls driver, Liam Lawson, unveils LL30 GS Mini Special Edition Taylor Guitar as the team brings Formula One and country music together in Austin.

Ahead of the United States Grand Prix, Liam Lawson is swapping his race suit for the stage as he prepares to headline the latest edition of Garage Sessions - the team’s music culture series.

To mark his Garage Sessions debut, Liam has released his custom LL30 GS Mini Special Edition Taylor Guitar; bringing together Taylor’s renowned craftsmanship, Liam’s racing identity and his long-standing love of music.

Yeehaw, LL30

The guitar features a distinctive pink-to-white burst design across the top of the body, complemented by pink dot bridge pins and Liam’s racing number, #30, emblazoned on the pickguard. His signature cartoon logo - a familiar feature of his racing helmet - is also engraved on the truss rod cover, making the guitar a unique expression of Liam both on and off the track.

Starting at 3pm on the Thursday of Austin race week, Esses, Visa and Cash App will host Esses Bazaar at Inn Cahoots in the heart of Austin’s vibrant East 6th Street. The event will feature incredible food, live music, a tattoo artist, western wear, glam stations and the chance to snap a photo with the Visa Cash App Racing Bulls show car. Garage Sessions will follow at 7pm, where Liam will perform live alongside his former childhood bandmates, including his brother and two close friends.

Liam Lawson, Visa Cash App Racing Bulls driver, said: “I feel very proud to be launching my partnership with Taylor Guitars at Garage Sessions. Playing the guitar has been a big part of my life since I was young, as my Dad played in a band throughout my childhood. He encouraged my brother and I to play since we were six years old, so it feels like a full circle moment to be launching a custom LL30 GS Mini SE while performing with my brother and two friends who I grew up playing with. Music is a big part of my life, and I use it to clear my head during the season, so I'm really excited to perform at Garage Sessions where we can connect with fans outside of the track. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone there.”

Austin 2026 Lineup

Setting the tone for a night of country music, the wider line-up features an impressive mix of emerging talent and established songwriters. Jonathan Capeci, who has co-written tracks for Kane Brown and Carín León, will star alongside Scoot Teasley, whose songwriting credits include BigXthaPlug and Shaboozey’s collaboration “Home”. Nashville songwriter, Jess Farren, who celebrated her first number one with Josh Ross’s “Hate How You Look”, will also perform ahead of BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville recording artist, Alison Nichols. Drake Milligan, who headlined the inaugural F1 Grid Gig on the live broadcast at the 2025 race, will conclude the evening.

Furthermore, photographer Gian Icatar, who was discovered through VCARB’s Creator Platform and first joined the team in Detroit for its season launch, will join the team in Austin to capture the energy of the evening. Garage Sessions continues to reflect the team's commitment to meeting fans where their passions live. By putting music and community at the center of the race weekend, Visa Cash App Racing Bulls is reaching fans far beyond the grid.
