SXSW 2010 – Austin, Texas here we come!
The South by Southwest Music Festival…
It’s that time of the year again for our annual pilgrimage down to Austin for the The South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conferences & Festival.
Officially, The South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conferences & Festivals offer the unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. Fostering creative and professional growth alike, SXSW® is the premier destination for discovery.
Unofficially (and that is how we roll all week), we are there to connect with existing clients, network & to hunt down new clients. All while taking in some great music & food, Austin style!
Some bands we are excited to check out include: Sharon Jones & Dap Kings, Lucero, Here We Go Magic, Deer Tick, Ozomatli, Glossary, Roadside Graves, Tim Easton, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Black Angels, Justin Townes Earle, Centro-Matic & lots more new bands to discover I am sure!
Double Down Music clients that will be in town include: Progressive Global Agency, September Gurl, Blee Music – Austin show details below!
We are excited to announce that we have created some cool Double Down Music lighters to give away this year for some self-promotion. If your going to be in Austin for SXSW, come find me in to get your hands on one of these custom Double Down Music lighters for your enjoyment!
We have set-up a new Twitter account {CLICK HERE TO FOLLOW} that is dedicated to Double Down Music @ SXSW! Right now we are just following all of the SXSW info, but plan to send updates from Austin as the SXSW week rolls on.
