Between extreme hydration, poor shoe choices, and possible sunstroke, the thing that kept me going at SXSW (besides the falafel stand on 6th and Neches) was the smaller live performances occurring right under everyone’s nose. Seeing a group of under-the-radar musicians pour their heart into their show regardless of the crowd or time of day was a refreshing slap to the face that reminded me what SXSW originally started for. Luckily, I was able to catch D.C. musicians Carol Bui and Tereu Tereu,...

With the month of March now upon us fully, it is SXSW time. This is sure to mean a lot of big releases from some up-and-coming indie bands (and major label ones with "indie cred"). Hot on our radar now is the iTunes EP from Ravens and Chimes (who graced our bi-weekly radio show at WHFR to share some of these songs with us) and the latest full length from Parts and Labor , Constant Future (pictured). Strfkr is also a welcome return with a new name (again). Old school acts like Rival Schools and R.E.M. (both with that ...
