Back from Texas, and rather than doing a full-blown
retrospective we'll keep to the last Amie Street band we saw:
Tiny
Animals. They are fun and friendly and make solid pop rock.
Yep... sometimes it's that simple!
Day 3 of our field trip: indie poppers Jukebox the Ghost,
soul man Eli
"Paperboy" Reed, psych-rockers Apes, and some old metal dudes
who have yet to upload their music...
Some quick highlights of our second day in Texas: a crazy set by
Iceland's Reykjavik!, some lo-fi
noise from Times
New Viking, and the grime star Dizzee Rascal. Read
more after the break!
Highlights of our first day at the Texas festival include a
Walter Meego
show at the Parish and a quick chat with the always charismatic
Ford
Turrell. Read it all after the break!
SXSW 2008, a five-day music festival in Austin, TX featuring
nearly 1,500 artists, begins today! A few of us are in Texas
checking out the shows and reporting back with the best of the
best, so keep checking back for updates this week. Check out the
Amie Street
artists appearing at the festival, and read more after the
break!
