Packaging the Experience: Attract Audiences to Your Records
13 schedule::attendees
Location Austin Convention Center, Room 15
eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  As downloading music has quickly become the dominant form of distribution, the importance and role of the physical product has been challenged. Why should a fan buy the album when it's more convenient to simply download it? As artists and labels have worked to answer this question, what's emerged are exciting new approaches to packaging, lavish box sets that become fetish objects for hardcore fans, the creation of new content that enhance the experience of "owning" a record, the exploration of multi-formatted releases, the re-emergence of vinyl, merchandise-driven marketing, and the innovative use of the web both as a distribution channel as well as an additional component in the overall experience. By mining the experiences and perspectives of a diverse range of music industry professionals, this panel will deliver its audience keen insight on how to not only package the record, but to package the true experience of an artist or band. The panel's audience will come away with a deeper understanding of how they might "package their own experiences." They will learn, specifically, how multi-formatted releases, reissued catalogs, specialty packaging, web-driven distribution, merchandising, and other creative concepts drive fans to additional content and unlock new audiences for the music and art they make.

The explanation of the edge that vinyl has over any other music medium in the marketplace today as well as the pros of producing vinyl is an mp3 dominated music medium era will be addressed.

DJ Wade-O (Between Sets)
Location Carver Museum Boyd Vance Theater
eventtype  Music
event::about  Hello, my name is Wade “DJ Wade-O” Harris and I host the Wade-O Radio Show, where It’s More than Music…It’s Ministry! I believe that music is one of those rare art forms that can bring people of all races, nationalities and economic backgrounds together. In its purest form, music can inspire, encourage and evoke an emotional response that can resonate with the listener for hours and even days on end. Ministry takes that a step further. Ministry equips others with the skills to become all that God has destined for them to become. Although I grew up going to church in Columbus, Ohio, for the first 22 years of my life I didn’t have a true personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I knew who Jesus was, but I was not committed to serving Him. During my college years at Howard University and then going by the name DJ Oddysey, I hosted the #1 radio show on Howard’s student run radio station WHBC 830 AM. As such, I had the opportunity to share the stage or DJ events with and for the likes of Nas, Busta Rhymes, Alicia Keys, DJ Clue, Fabolous, DMX, Biz Markie, Mos Def, Baby Sham, Ashanti and Mobb Deep. Despite that “worldly success,” I was spiritually bankrupt. I was never truly at peace. I knew I needed to make a change in my life, but I was scared. I didn’t want to miss out on all of the fun. I thought that when I finally grew up, then I would get serious about serving the Lord. In 2002, my life changed. A good friend gave me a book written by former hip-hop superstar Ma$e entitled Revelations. Through Ma$e’s (now Pastor Mason Betha) testimony, I was re-introduced to Jesus Christ. I saw someone who had everything I was chasing: money, power and respect, yet gave it all up to serve the Lord. At that moment, I knew the Lord was calling me. This time, I accepted the Lord’s call and my life has not been the same ever since. Even though I’m still growing up, I’ve dedicated my life to telling others about Jesus Christ. I currently host and produce my own syndicated Christian Hip Hop radio show/podcast, The Wade-O Radio Show, which can be heard Saturday Evenings from 11 PM to 1 AM on the 5 stations in and around the NYC Metro Area owned by WRDR The Bridge-FM. Thru my program, I have had the opportunity to interview the likes of Tonex, Rockwilder, Dorinda Clark-Cole, Lecrae, Da T.R.U.T.H., KJ-52, Trip Lee, Canton Jones, the Frontlynaz, J.J. Hairston from Youthful Praise and many more. Currently the show has a potential reach of over 6.5 million people. The Lord has also allowed me to serve as the announcer and producer of my Pastor’s radio show entitled Inspired with Pastor David Jefferson Sr., which can be heard on New York City’s only 24-hour gospel station, WLIB 1190 AM twice a week.

DJ Yoda
13 schedule::attendees
Location Dot Com Day Stage Austin Convention Center
eventtype  Music
Artists  DJ Yoda
event::about  DJ Yoda is one of Britain’s most admired, original club DJs and an AV pioneer who is constantly pushing the possibilities of audio-visual manipulation. Encapsulating the very essence of good times, DJ Yoda has transformed clubbing as we know it, throwing down styles as diverse as Hip-Hop, Funk, Baltimore Club, Drum n Bass and even Country music, all cut-up with a awe-inspiring selection of film, TV show and You Tube visuals that elevate his sets to the uniquely sublime. His keenly-defined sense of humour has captured the imagination of the masses making him possibly the only DJ in the world who can fill a club cutting the Indiana Jones theme music with dirty dubstep beats or 80’s pop with New York rap. A judge for three years-worth of DMC DJ World Finals, tipped by Q Magazine as one of ‘The 10 DJs you must see before you die’ and voted alongside DJ Premier as ‘One of the Top Three DJs in the World’ in Hip-Hop Connection magazine, DJ Yoda represents a new brand of mix-master who can happily play any kind of music to make people dance. In the last year alone, DJ Yoda has: • Played on the same bill as Steve Martin, Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock at the HBO Comedy Festival in Las Vegas. • Sold out London’s Koko on his critically acclaimed ‘Magic Cinema Show’ tour. • Performed alongside the likes of Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson and Fatboy Slim. • DJ’d to packed-out clubs everywhere from Beijing to New York. • Mixed up the Champions League highlights with a tongue-in-cheek soundtrack for ITV’s Champions League Final preview show, blowing ITV Sports presenter Matt Smith’s mind along the way. • Performed with Lily Allen providing exclusive visuals. • Earned a barrel full of accolades for mixing the Fabric Live 39 CD. • Hosted an hour-long show for BBC Radio 1 mixing-up highlights of their 40-year history as part of their official anniversary celebrations. • Been voted No.28 in Datatransmission’s publicly voted Top 40 DJs Poll, making him the highest placed Hip-Hop DJ. • Been nominated for a Sony Radio Award in the ‘Music Special’ category for his "Cut & Paste" documentary for BBC Radio 1. Following his successful re-scoring of both ‘The Goonies’ and ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ on the festival circuit in 2003 and 2004, Yoda’s notoriety as the most exciting Audio-Visual innovator has escalated, with his ‘DJ Yoda Goes To The Movies’ tours achieving legendary status. His current ‘Magic Cinema Show’ takes the AV art form into brand new territory utilising cutting edge DVD mixing equipment that he has been instrumental in developing. Aside from his constant touring, DJ Yoda has completed the fourth instalment of his lauded ‘How To Cut and Paste’ mix CD series. Following on from Vol. 3’s ‘The 80s Edition’ - a collage of his favourite pop, hip-hop and movie moments from the 1980s - Volume 4 is a truly surprising and groundbreaking edition. No stranger to breaking new ground, Yoda’s other achievements include providing Pete Tong with his first ever hip-hop Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 - bootleg copies of which have been doing the rounds ever since - plus his "Mini-Mix" for Annie Mac's show was also voted, by listeners, as the best mix ever broadcast on the show. With his abilities as a DJ and Audio Visual tour-de-force in no doubt, Yoda’s skills as a musician were confirmed with the release of his debut artist album, ‘The Amazing Adventures Of DJ Yoda’ in 2006. Providing beats for the likes of Biz Markie, 2005 MOBO-winner Sway, Princess Superstar, Jungle Brothers, MC Paul Barman, and a host of other vocalists, ‘The Amazing Adventures Of DJ Yoda’ was critically acclaimed gaining rave reviews across the board. Having recently provided music for Film, TV and Advertising he is now working on a new album due for release in 2009 and still hopes to work with all the cast of Sesame Street on a turntablist DJ track.

Mantralogy to Bring Mantra Music to SXSW

IMPRINT RECORD LABEL TEAMS UP WITH WHOLE FOODS TO BRING A PIECE OF OM TO AUSTIN, TX

Mantralogy will bring fresh vibes to SXSX 2011, with their youthful brand of Mantra Music and clothing. The imprint label, of legendary rock label Equal Vision Records, promises to bring something new, something different – and something peaceful to the festival. Mantralogy will focus on their ultimate goal of uplifting and positively transforming the foundation of people’s hearts through music, lifestyle products, and events that support the growing culture of Mantra Music.

For their debut SXSW appearance, Mantralogy has teamed up with Whole Foods Market and local yoga studio, Black Swan, to host a string of showcases and events. “We intend to offer a peaceful breather during the non-stop rock marathon,” states Mantralogy and Equal Vision Records’ owner, Steve Reddy. “We want to create a place at SXSW for music industry people to share their love of music and yoga.”

Whole Foods Market representative Richard Gabaree adds, “The wondrous sights, sounds, smells and activity in the store make each trip to Whole Foods Market Lamar a tour of discovery. We are so excited to add Mantralogy to our list of events during SXSW and look forward to their contribution to our guests’ experience.”

Mantralogy artists, The Mayapuris, will be performing at Whole Foods Market on Thursday, March 17 at 5:30pm and at Black Swan Yoga on Friday, March 18 at 8:00pm, joined by labelmates, SRI Kirtan. SRI Kirtan will also be performing at Whole Foods Market on Saturday March 19 from 12:00pm – 2:-00pm.

The Mayapuris, kirtan’s youthful breakout band, have been touring non-stop behind their debut album Mridanga touching six continents including stops at Wanderlust (alongside Moby), The Bhakti Fest, Princeton University and Jivamukti NYC. SRI Kirtan bring a fresh sound to the Mantra Music scene combining a variety of western instruments and styles with traditional chants and melodies. Their second album, Live Your Love, recently debuted at No. 10 on the Billboard World Music Chart.

Mantralogy combines an edgy, punk rock attitude and underground DIY ethos with the ancient uplifting philosophies and culture of spirituality, yoga, conscious living and Mantra Music. Mantra Music, or Kirtan, is an ancient form of music heard in yoga classes around the world.

Metropolis is an artists and musicians community located just a couple of miles southeast of Downtown Austin (I live here, and love it!). The show will take place in the center of the complex, where there is a large in-ground pool, hot tub, huge stage, BBQ pits, and volleyball court (although I think we may be turning the court into the graffiti exhibition area). The people of Metropolis (both residents and employees) are great peeps who love good music and having fun.... we intend to supply both.

Please be EXTREMELY respectful of the property and the people at Metropolis. This event is BYOB, but there is NO GLASS ALLOWED. Please, NO weapons, NO bad attitudes, and NO unsanctioned graffiti.

TRE9
4 schedule::attendees
Location Carver Museum Boyd Vance Theater
eventtype  Music
Artists  Tre9
event::about  It’s people like Tre9 that helped earn Houston the nickname of “Hustle-Town, Texas.” Young and focused, he started Much Luvv Records in 1998 with a vision-mission to make positive hip-hop music popular in order to improve lives around the globe. With three solo albums, one group album, and seven additional titles from Much Luvv artists, Tre9 has been acting on his dream. For over 10 years, he has owned and operated a building maintenance company that has given him the freedom to excel in his craft as a hip-hop artist. It has also provided an avenue for him to invest in other business and ministry endeavors. All Eyes On Me Inc. is a media and event conglomerate which gives inspirational hip-hop artists a way to be seen and heard through an annual youth conference, awards show, and a television program. For the past six years, Tre9 has spearheaded the All Eyes On Me Achievement Awards (formerly known as THHHAA); a ceremony that honors over 30 artists, retailers, media companies, and businesses supporting positive hip-hop music. And with All Eyes On Me TV, Tre9, along with co-host Bushwick Bill (Geto Boys), aims to expose the optimistic side of urban culture that visual media outlets often ignore. In addition to these creative avenues of exposure, Tre9 co-owns a destination portal website, DaSouth.com that provides an online presence for his music genre. His multi-media business, 4930 Studios, offers audio production, video production, graphic design, and printing services that raise the standards of excellence throughout the industry. In the community, Tre9 co-founded URGEWORKS; an organization that brings uplifting messages through hip-hop performance arts to schools, churches, juvenile correctional facilities, and community centers. The organization promotes positive character development and aims to instill self-confidence to its audiences. His most recent album, “The Farmer,” puts Tre9 in the role of a modern day “Johnny Appleseed” by mixing agricultural imagery and metaphors with Southern style rap. Listeners are drawn by the music and fed by the message. It’s obvious that Tre9 is a selfless individual determined to bring qualitative, non-explicit hip-hop music to a mass audience. Tre9 has been recognized his efforts across the United States, being honored at events such as Atlanta’s Holy Hip-Hop Awards and Florida’s Flavor Fest. Tre9 is currently touring in the South and Eastern parts of the country, hitting Texas, Virginia, Maryland, Louisiana, New Jersey and Florida. After a missionary trip to Rotherham, England in 2007, he was touched by the need to carry his message beyond the borders of his homeland. Tre9 answered his calling to international missions and plans to spread his inspirational poetry and culture in Mexico, Brazil, Switzerland, and a return visit to the U.K. No matter where he goes, the “Farmer” will be dropping hip-hop seeds of hope with an expectant vision of the harvest sure to come.

eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  If you read the liner notes of any one of hundreds of classic albums recorded in the 60's, 70's and 80's, there is one name that appears again and again - Nicky Hopkins. Nicky's incredible piano licks graced 14 Rolling Stones records, classic albums and singles by the Beatles, (individually and collectively), the Who, the Kinks, Steve Miller, Joe Cocker and by dozens of other leading artist. He played at Woodstock with the Jefferson Airplane - well, you get the picture! British songwriter, singer, producer and musician Julian Dawson met Nicky Hopkins at SXSW in 1994, wrote and recorded with him that summer and mourned with the rest of the music world, when Nicky died an untimely death, aged only 50 in September of that year. Julian determined to tell the story of Nicky's life with all it's highs and lows. Now 12 years and 130 interviews later comes the American launch of his book 'And On Piano...Nicky Hopkins.'

TSOP: Celebrating Gamble, Huff and Philadelphia International Records
3 schedule::attendees
Location Austin Convention Center, Room 18ABC
eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  Like Motown was to Detroit and Stax was to Memphis, Philadelphia International Records gave the City of Brotherly Love a label to proudly call its own - and one that produced a distinct, successful brand of R&B/soul. With their sophisticated, seductive, string-laden musical foundation (which was typically married with poignant lyrical content), Philadelphia International's Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff created what's known worldwide as "The Sound of Philadelphia." Gamble and Huff helped make stars of The O'Jays, Teddy Pendergrass and Billy Paul during the 1970s and played a key role in reviving the careers of The Jacksons, Lou Rawls and Jerry Butler. 2011 marks the 40th anniversary of Philadelphia International. The songwriting/production partners still operate out of Philly and continue to make their presence felt in the music industry.

eventtype  Music
Artists  Cheno Lyfe
event::about  In an urban market where a criminal rap sheet, drug use and street life is used as a form of creditability, and in many cases, a route to fame and money, Cheno Lyfe (Christ Hearted Evangelist Now Offering Lyfe) is changing the standard and in the process affecting a generation. Born Rameses Echevarria, CL spent most of his life incarcerated. It was there, behind those metal bars that his musical passion, talent and most importantly God, became his way out. Now more than 5 years later, Cheno Lyfe is one of the industry’s most versatile artists, with his unique Miami Style and Down South Crunk. This is evident in his first album. In a city known for marquee names such as DJ Khaled, Rick Ross, Trick Daddy, a man stands completely against the grain...Cheno Lyfe. Winner of the 2008 MIM (Miami Music Conference) embarks on his debut studio album entitled “HOME”. From the first record, a glimpse into CL’s heart is quickly seen as he intros the album with the burden that encompasses the project...his HOME! The hit singles “HOME” & “Won’t Stop” have already encouraged many as countless testimonies have come forth. Listeners are left with a powerful message embedded in the hearts. CL’s unique Miami style and down south crunk make HOME an instant “none skip”. With ground breaking productions by G Roc of The Beat Mekanicz, G Styles, Juice 2020, to name a few. Varying from club bangers to crunk, east coast to even a slow rock worship record, the album has a sure commercial appeal for all. Collaborations include the Dove Award winning Pablo from Group One Crew, KDrama, DMaub, Rhema Soul, Gnotes, and more. With over 1000 pre orders already, HOME is a breath of fresh air in the industry! “Cheno Lyfe has given us an album that perfectly balances style and Christian substance. Coming on the heels of several notably successful CHH releases, from rappers including Lecrae, Da' T.R.U.T.H. and Thi'sl, “Home” should be on the short list of recent efforts that have the power to expand the reach of the genre—and reach thirsty souls—with God's blessing.”- Danielle Campbell-Angah /DaSouth.com

event::about  Toro Y Moi is 23 year old Columbia, South Carolina native and resident Chaz Bundick. After earning a BFA in Graphic Design at The University of South Carolina, Chaz decided to push his music further now that he has more time on his hands. His mom came from the Phillipines to the United States, where she met her future husband (who's African American) in college. They lived in New York City taking in all the wonderful cultural influences the city's rising underground scene had to offer at the time (late 70s/early 80s). Deciding to slow down and be closer to family, they moved to Columbia, South Carolina where they had their first child... Chaz Bundick's methods are constantly changing and evolving. Heavily influenced by his parent's vinyl and tape collection, he also possesses great admiration for contemporary influences like Animal Collective, Sonic Youth, J Dilla, and Daft Punk. Like most prepubescent teens, he had his punk band and once that died out, the "side project" soon became the main focus. Toro y Moi started in 2001 as a bedroom project but quickly grew into the live performance realm. The songs are born from a plethora of different genres, from freak-folk to R&B to French House. Before any full length album has been released, Toro Y Moi has already received praise from music websites like Pitchfork and Gorilla Vs. Bear as well as print features in the NME and Dazed and Confused.

event::about  The W.A.R.R.I.O.R.S. ATX Austin, Texas. Home of the University of Texas Longhorns, 6th Street, and the annual SXSW (South by Southwest) music festival. It’s also been dubbed “The Live Music Capital of the World.” And as part of the Bible Belt, one would think that a quality Christian rap collective like The W.A.R.R.I.O.R.S. ATX would find an easy path to both exposure and acceptance. “On the contrary, it’s been an uphill grind,” group member Ahmad “Victorious” Bell said. “Just because there are venues all across town that offer live music every night of the week doesn’t mean that they want to hear what we’re pushing.” “Believe me, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is still a touchy and often unpopular subject in this very liberal town. Shoot, this is the place where the modern atheistic movement was born!” Still, the The W.A.R.R.I.O.R.S ATX press on. The group (whose name stands for We Are Righteous Redeemed Invaders Of Reality) has been together for about six years and comprised of Bell, Ervin Jackson (Swerv), and Corey Anderson (Proof). In 2004, The W.A.R.R.I.O.R.S. ATX became the first Christian rap group in the central Texas area to have their music played on a secular top 40 station. They followed that up with a ministry performance at ME TV (a regional television network) that was in regular rotation. They’ve also repeatedly performed at SXSW (South by Southwest) and seen their “Warriors Anthem” video receive airplay on both BET and The Gospel Music Channel. God has entrusted them to minister alongside a virtual “Who’s Who” of Christian hip hop including: Lecrae, FLAME, Tedashii, The Cross Movement, Braille, Da’ T.R.U.T.H., Tre 9, Corey Red, and Precise. They have also been honored by their peers with a Texas Holy Hip Hop Achievement Award for XXXX and Perseverance Award from The Texas Gospel Announcers Guild. “I’ve known the guys in The W.A.R.R.I.O.R.S. ATX for over five years now and seen their servant hearts and passion for ministry. Adding them to our family just seemed like such a natural fit,” Much Luvv Records owner Bobby “Tre9” Herring said.

Many Ozomatli fans who've embraced the band since their inception now have kids of their own, and Ozo are thrilled to now offer a show that an entire family can enjoy together. The band are currently in the studio with acclaimed producer Tony Berg, recording a children's album for release in 2011.

Vocalist Asru Sierra adds, 'we felt it was a great idea to do a family record so that everyone can come together and dance as a family at our shows. And they don't have to be kids, as long as you're a kid at heart… which we all were to begin with, anyway!'

Edwyn Collins
65 schedule::attendees
Location Dot Com Day Stage Austin Convention Center
eventtype  Music
Artists  Edwyn Collins
event::about  Edwyn Collins Not Falling, But Laughing The first the world heard of Edwyn Collins was in February 1980 with the release of Falling And Laughing. The debut single by his band, Orange Juice, it was also the first offering from Postcard Records, the independent label Edwyn co-founded with Alan Horne, run from the latter’s sock drawer in a former Red Light district in Glasgow’s West End. As a record, Falling And Laughing was a hopeless cacophony of shrill guitars and an inexplicably loud bass drum pedal. But as a song, it was a sublime celebration of unfulfilled ardour to a tune that aimed to bridge the chasm between The Velvet Underground and Chic. In the age of New Romantics, Edwyn arrived as a Real Romantic, one unafraid to simultaneously embrace "the pleasure with the pain". After ten more records, including three increasingly inventive Orange Juice singles, Postcard closed its sock drawer in late 1981. It would be another two decades before Edwyn and Horne’s endeavours would be belatedly recognised as a key foundation stone for indie music, particularly in Scotland where Primal Scream, Belle And Sebastian and Franz Ferdinand would all follow, and acknowledge, Orange Juice’s trailblazing example. In the interim, Edwyn took Orange Juice into the Top 10 with 1983’s Rip It Up, perhaps the epitome of their Velvets/Chic punk-funk hybrid, complete with Buzzcocks-homage guitar solo. Alas, the pleasure of performing the song on Top Of The Pops was neutered by the pain of Legs & Co ripping up tissue paper whilst dancing on an adjoining stage. Jinxed thereafter, Orange Juice would later close their proverbial sock drawer in 1985. Edwyn immediately embarked on a solo career, though it would be ten years before he found himself back on Top Of The Pops with 1995’s A Girl Like You. Luckily, this time Legs & Co were nowhere to be seen. Better still, the song’s northern soul groove and Isley Brothers guitar frills rewarded Edwyn with a genuine "worldwide smash" and enough royalties to fill a thousand sock drawers. Life, suddenly, was all pleasure. Fast forward another decade to February 2005, when Edwyn had just finished recording songs for his sixth solo album. Among the rough mixes in the can was a track called One Is A Lonely Number. Exactly 25 years after Falling And Laughing, it saw the Old Romantic still embracing life’s pleasure with its pain: "If life breaks your heart, you needn’t fall apart." Little could he have realised how profoundly prophetic these words would become in the months that followed. On Sunday, February 20, 2005, Edwyn was admitted to hospital after collapsing at home. He was later diagnosed with having suffered two cerebral haemorrhages and underwent a precarious neurological operation. Incredibly, through a combination of surgical brilliance, the heroic support of his family and his own seemingly invincible will power, Edwyn pulled through. Six months after his stroke, he was back at home. But more phenomenal still was his determination to overcome the physical after-effects hindering his movement and speech so he could return to the studio and finish the album he’d already begun. The result was Home Again, a testament not only to Edwyn Collins the songwriter, but Edwyn the man and his resolute spirit. "This is hard for me," admits Edwyn. "I’m learning to live again after my stroke. But I am happy and contented also. I’m very pleased with the album and with the songs. I’m getting there and I feel grateful at last." Finishing Home Again has been a Herculean struggle, but Edwyn’s perseverance has more than paid off. Asked to rate it against his entire body of work, Orange Juice included, Edwyn ponders for a few seconds. "Home Again," he finally says, "it’s perfect. These songs are me. This is who I am." has more than paid off. Asked to rate it against his entire body of work, Orange Juice included, Edwyn ponders for a few seconds. "Home Again," he finally says, "it’s perfect. These songs are me. This is who I am." Since the release of Home Again, Edwyn has continued to renew himself, one step at a time. In November 2007, he took to the stage again, having painstakingly relearned the lyrics to his songs. Our hearts were in our mouths, but of course, he pulled the performance off with aplomb. He has continued to tour ever since, increasing in confidence with each show. In October 2008, he quite suddenly reconnected with the songwriter inside him, and has since recorded six new songs for an album due out in 2010. He has regained control of his precious studio and is swamped with production work for others, alongside his collaborator of sixteen years, Sebastian Lewsley. In May 2009, Edwyn was honoured by the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, when he was awarded the Ivor Novello Inspiration Award. The long spiral of influence Orange Juice continue to have can be heard on the boxset, Coals To Newcastle, rleased in November 2010 by Domino Records. Spring 2010 will see the US release of Losing Sleep, his first set of songs written and recorded since his return. Featuring collaborations with his friends and supporters Franz Ferdinand, The Drums, The Cribs and The Magic Numbers, not to mention Johnny Marr and Roddy Frame, the album has already been hailed by many as the best of his life and is already enjoying success in the UK and Europe. No special pleading required. Edwyn Collins is back.

event::about  Tapes ‘n Tapes is a rock band from Minneapolis, MN, made up of Josh Grier on guitar and lead vocals, Matt Kretzmann on keys and horns, Erik Appelwick on bass guitar and backing vocals, and Jeremy Hanson on percussion. Grier said he formed the band in 2003, to “have fun with my friends. I always wanted to see if I could play music with others and for others.” Grier and his buddies amassed “tapes ‘n tapes” of noodling, experimental jams and declared themselves officially a band. In the winter of 2004, the band now known as Tapes ‘n Tapes bought some recording equipment and headed out to a rustic cabin in the woods of Wisconsin. They recorded their self-titled, now long out of print, seven song EP in three days. Songs like “Beach Girls” and “50’s Parking” from the EP are still in their live set today. Next up for the band was recording their critically acclaimed follow up, The Loon. Appelwick recorded, mixed and produced the eleven song record with the band in one week at a friend’s home studio. The Loon came out in November of 2005 on ibid records, and no one was ready for what came next. People started to notice the foursome’s jangly, melodic brand of rock and the band started touring – gaining more and more attention from music critics and fans all over the world. Even the Thin White Duke took notice. “’Insistor’ is the first single, and it's cracking. It was a slow grower, but once that chorus digs in there's really no escape,” said Mr. David Bowie. The prestigious XL Recordings re-released The Loon in July of 2006, the same month Tapes ‘n Tapes made their national television debut on the Late Show with David Letterman. The band then toured around the world for the next few years- playing shows with the likes of Franz Ferdinand, Spoon, Cold War Kids, The Black Keys, Echo & the Bunnymen, and The Wrens. In 2006 they were honored to play Reading/Leeds, and 2007 saw them rock out at Lollapalooza and Coachella. When starting to work out songs for their follow up, Walk It Off, the band was asked who their dream producer was. The obvious answer to them was Mr. Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, MGMT). With twelve songs in hand, the band made the jaunt to upstate New York to live and work with Fridmann for two amazing weeks- one week in September 2007 to record and one week in October 2007 to mix. However, years of touring, the political climate, and distance from friends and family had changed the band, and given them a different point of view- one that seemed to pervade their sound. Spin praised the record saying, “the tunes are tighter and performances far more dynamic and aggressive…..they can now pull off jittery punk and understated, graceful melancholy.” XL released Walk It Off in April of 2008, on the same day the band made their debut on Conan O’Brien. After touring and supporting Walk It Off for the following year, it was time for a little R & R- rest and relaxation. They purposefully took their time and tried to get back to a place where the band was fun, and not work. They also decided to go back to their roots and do everything on their own, with no label involvement. They cut ties with XL, and re-launched ibid records, their own label which initially released The Loon. The brothers tapes had saved their pennies over the years and set out to make the record they’ve always wanted to make – Outside. They wanted to record at home and self-produce, which they did over two weeks at The Terrarium in Minneapolis, MN in March of 2010. The next step was getting the talented Mr. Peter Katis (Interpol, The National) to lend his ears to the mix. Grier spent two more weeks in Bridgeport, CT, while Katis mixed the record to perfection. The result is twelve songs that are playful and melodic, while also capturing the essence and energy of their live show. Grier said, “We had a great time making Outside and we wanted our enjoyment of the process to be audible in the recording, and I think we succeeded.” One thing is for sure, Tapes ‘n Tapes feel like they are making music for the right reasons – fun and pure love for music. And as Grier always says, “Everything else is gravy.” Outside will be released on January 11, 2011.

9 schedule::attendees
Location Austin Convention Center, Room 16A
eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  The debate about creating music for TV and Film is always lively and ever changing. It generally falls into 2 fascinating areas (1) the Creative Process, and (2) the Business Process. We will ask successful composers from Television and Film to tell their own stories about how people start out, and how to maintain their careers. What makes a great composer for film and television? Who chooses the composer? and who has the creative control? We will then quiz the experts from film and TV production and the music business on how music commissioning deals negotiated and contracted and how the royalties flow to composers, music publishers and music collecting societies. Everyone wants to know where the money is and how to keep hold of it. Can you make a living composing for TV and Film?

event::about  So now I’ll walk in the “good works” that have been prepared for me/ God’ll work ‘em out, I just trust in faith that He’s there for me” On his debut album, Kingdom People, Tedashii a.k.a Tdot, communicates his heart with boldness and authenticity wanting listeners to understand that we are people with a purpose bigger than ourselves. Many have heard him on Lecrae’s debut album “Real Talk”, and on the 116 Clique Compilation album with tracks like Represent, In Ya Hood, and Impressed, but now with 19 tracks dedicated to unleashing what’s been on this brother’s heart you can expect a serious album. “Kingdom People to me is a look into the practical side of walking out our Christian faith. From a testimonial and very introspective view, I desire to encourage and challenge us, through my own experiences and struggles which alot of believers also struggle with, to stand firm in our faith. I pray this album becomes more than another disc in your hip hop collection, but a tool that will be utilized fully by the Lord!” With roots down in Houston, TX, Tedashii brings a distinct flavor you won’t find anywhere else. Southern bangers like “Houston We Have a Problem”, and introspective tracks like “This Song’s For You”, Kingdom People is an album that hits from all angles. Featuring production by Lecrae, Tony Stone, J.R., Mac, and others, plus guest spots by Flame, Lecrae, Trip Lee, J.R., Cam, and others, you want to make sure that you have copy in rotation.

event::about  We all have focus. We all have something that determines our navigation through this maze we call life. The question is where is your focus? When asked this question, Pro responds with a one word answer... “Christ.” “If I focus on anything other than that I lose.” he elaborates. “The idea is to be like the racehorse. Many racehorse trainers believer that blinders keep the horse focused on what is in front of him, encouraging him to pay attention to the race rather than other distractions. So believe I got my blinders on!” Born in Pontiac Michigan and raised in Middle Tennessee, Pro has been exposed to many things that have crafted his music immensely. Unfortunately, Pro shares the same story of many urban youth today. He was raised in a single parent household by his mother, with no real father figure, and surrounded by a culture that preaches arrogance boldly. But rather than focus on the negative, Pro emphasizes the fact that through the blood of Christ, anyone can be free!

event::about  Born in Greenwood Mississippi, Thisl’s family moved to St. Louis when he was two years old so his grandpa could help run the family business. Living in one of the roughest cities in America insured that he would see and experience things that would cause him to grow up real fast. Robbed of his childhood, while other kids were out playing, he was hustling, with grown man responsibilities. As rap music was quickly growing to be the pulse and soundtrack of inner city America, it wasn’t long before the pain he felt, married the rhythm that was being pumped into him. With a crazy life life all around him, rap music became three things motivation, therapy, and a blank wall to paint pictures through the stories he told. After years of hardship, trials and now a life changing transformation, Thi’sl has set to tell his story to the world.

Kurt Vile And The Violators
298 schedule::attendees
Location Auditorium Shores Stage (Lady Bird Lake)
eventtype  Music
event::about  Kurt Vile has a way of tying time in knots. You can hear it on his new album Smoke Ring For My Halo from the get-go – the pinwheeling guitars and reaching atmospheres of ‘Baby’s Arms’ are as strange as they are familiar: a demonstration of how Kurt can put worn methods and sounds through himself and end up with something that isn’t emotionally or sonically obvious. Instead we’re left with a record that contains traces of the past but doesn’t waste precious time in the now being reverent. Once compared to Leonard Cohen, Tom Petty, Psychic TV, and Animal Collective in the same review (for 2009’s Childish Prodigy), Kurt can bring to mind anything from Suicide to Leo Kottke to My Bloody Valentine, Bob Seger, Nick Drake, and Eastern ragas. Still, he pieces together these disparate elements so seamlessly and unpretentiously that such reference points are rendered pointless by the singularity of his sound. Kurt Vile might belong to a long lineage of classic American songwriters, but he’s the only one who’s alive and in his prime today. This is the fourth time Kurt Vile has put an album’s worth of songs together and stuck a name on it, but in a sense Smoke Ring For My Halo is his first real album – every flinching guitar arpeggio and vocal wander was made to be here, made with this record in mind, to sit alongside another in situ and in sequence. It seems weird saying this given the amount of ground he’s covered already, but Smoke Ring For My Halo is the perfect way into the music Kurt Vile makes. It’s tender and evocative, elusive but companionable, tough in the gut and the arm but swollen in the chest and giddy in the head. It’s a record that is perfect for any given day during whatever season, to satisfy all moods in every possible scenario – be that first thing in the morning or last thing at night; today, tomorrow or five years from now. In short, it’s real. Kurt Vile isn’t just the loneliest of ten siblings born to parents on the outskirts of Philadelphia, the former forklift truck driver who makes rock band guitar songs in the solitude of his bedroom. Smoke Ring For My Halo brings all of that together, marrying the introspection of the nocturnal stoner with the exploration of a troubadour frontiersman to arrive at a record you know is so much more than the sum of his and its constituent parts because often he sounds like he doesn’t know how he got there himself.

The audience is invited to participate in an open Q&A with the leaders who are spearheading the digital DJ revolution and extending the very definition of DJing.

Government Music Funding
17 schedule::attendees
Location Austin Convention Center, Room 15
eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  Behind the music industry, there's another industry of sorts afoot. This is the world of government funding, and its role on the production and dissemination of music. As the industry continues to decline with the loss of the physical market, public monies have become investments in artist careers, festivals and national pavilions, with export offices becoming versions of A&R, putting forth artists that are best for the national brand. Yet, as funding develops and increases, the way we all do it is different, so much so each country often enacts policy without looking at others, producing a diverging field of funding systems across the globe. It's best if we understand and learn from each other, and fully excoriate how important government funding is in the modern music industry. Come meet and learn from the leaders of Canada, Norway, Scotland, Austin and France to discuss the growing importance of music funding in the mainstream.

Alongside current country chart toppers like Lady Antebellum and Taylor Swift, new "royalty" from beyond the expected genre boundaries - artists such as Jack White, Ben Folds, Kings of Leon, Ke$ha, Paramore and, recent transplants, the Black Keys - have all emerged to take their rightful seats in the city's court in 2011. That growing diversity is also reflected in the city's evolving music businesses, from international artist management and booking to App developers and new model innovators. Yet there are sill obstacles and perception problems for the brand of "Music City" to overcome.

Location Austin Convention Center, Ballroom D Foyer
eventtype  Panel, Music
event::about  I’m in the Band charts White Zombie’s rise from the gritty music scene of New York’s Lower East Side in the eighties to arena headliners during the nineties alternative-explosion that followed in Nirvana's wake, while sharing the unlikely story of a female musician who won the respect and adoration of male metal musicians and fans. With I’m in the Band, Yseult combines eleven years of tour diaries, flyers, and personal photos and ephemera—many featuring rock icons such as Lemmy Killmeister, Iggy Pop, Joey Ramone, and Lux Interior—into a striking visual memoir. She offers fans a unique vantage on the life of a mega-band during rock’s last golden age. Sean Yseult played bass and wrote music for White Zombie from its inception in 1985 through its breakup over a decade later. Since then she’s played with Famous Monsters, Rock City Morgue, and The Cramps; exhibited her photography in galleries across the country; and formed the design company Yseult Designs. Recently she started the heavy rock band Star&Dagger. She divides her time between New Orleans and New York City.

event::about  Bobby Rush's Louisiana roots, Chicago blues scene credentials, and Mississippi home base are geographic evidence of a lifetime of music making. Bobby Rush—it’s pronounced as one three-syllable name—calls his music “folk funk,” an apt description for a blend that’s both decidedly modern and deeply rooted in tradition. Over the decades he has consistently updated his music by incorporating new styles-- Chicago blues, soul, funk, reggae, and hip-hop—into a fresh mix. At the same time, his original compositions often stem from his dipping into the well of folk wisdom. Bobby Rush's SXSW Interview will be conducted by Dr. Ike, producer of the acclaimed Ponderosa Stomp.

New York has Fashion Week, Austin has Style By.

But Style X will not only champion the emerging trends in Austin’s style sphere, but also the imaginative and noteworthy talents from across the globe. Debuting during the 25th Anniversary of South by Southwest Music, Style X is the next and natural evolution of the internationally-renowned festival and conference.

Style X includes a pop-up retail showcase that will serve as the official shopping experience of SXSW with dozens of brands from around the country bringing the latest designs in screenprinting and design, women’s, menswear, streetwear, swimwear and accessories. Also, Style By will host multiple fashion shows, each celebrating a different segment of style. Stay tuned for more information on the runway shows.

Music has always been a source for fashion trends and style and Style X is the world’s first event bringing those two together with a keen focus on the up-and-coming. Just as the music, film and technology makers reflect the innovative and creative capital of their respective industries, Style X will represent the inventive and inspired work of style makers from all over the world. They will be from places as far as Houston and Hong Kong and they will offer everything from eyeglasses and t-shirts to dresses and sneakers. The style will be by them, but this event will be for you.

event::about  Circuses can be inspiring. Introduce children to one and then carefully observe their next month on the playground as they recreate the roles of the clown, the lion tamer, and the trapeze artist. For Christian rapper CY, it launched a fresh phase of his music career – one marked by a new found creative freedom for his sound, lyrics,and stage show. After launching the Circus World Event…The Ringleader album at the 2007 Texas Holy Hip Hop Achievement Awards (where MTV personality Sway was a presenter) to critical acclaim, CY began to pray about the direction of its much anticipated follow-up. Whereas The Ringleader’s concept envisioned our world as a circus with one true ringleader (God) and an imposter (Satan) who plots and schemes for the same position, Circus World Event…High Wire Act plays off a tight rope metaphor that represents the narrow road believers in Christ must walk in order to receive eternal life. The project also carries other messages about the humility that must be maintained by those placed in lofty positions. CY’s High Wire Act employs a gloomier carnival sound, picture painting lyrics, and explosive energy. It’s versatile and accessible to all listeners with tracks produced by himself, Phillip Moore, Tony Stone, Vohn Beats/Symbolyc One, Jimmy Natural and others. Guest artists include Young Joshua, Tony Stone, One Dose, Von Won, FireJaws, Gina V, Tannie, Gifted, Tre9, Kent & Shellee Coley, MiKalibur, Titus, D.Steele, and more. Circus World Event…High Wire Act marks CY’s third solo album (fourth overall.) Previous records have spawned an award winning video for his “Confession Invasion” single, recognition for the best New Album and New Artist of the Year (2003 Texas Holy Hip Hop Awards), and several other nominations and industry honors. In addition, CY has performed at major events such as SXSW, Rap Fest, the En Sound Music Awards, the All Eyes On Me Awards, and Atlanta’s Holy Hip Hop Awards (where he was also honored.) Through those events and others, he has been honored to share the stage with music ministers such as Da’ T.R.U.T.H., Deitrick Haddon, Knowdaverbs, 4th Avenue Jones, Corey Red & Precise, Mark J, Lil Raskull, Pettidee, Todd Bangz, Everyday Process, and Lecrae.

event::about  Man Man Life Fantastic (Anti-) It's hard to imagine what looked worse: the night a sleep-deprived, Ambien-addled Ryan Kattner hallucinated his way into a motor bike accident or the afternoon an electrician checking out his sublet's faulty wiring walked into his room and found nothing but a boar's head, half-drained bottles of booze, scattered tax forms, a Wurlitzer, a frame-less mattress, and writing on the walls. (They were song lyrics, but still.) 'He was severely freaked out. A haunted, wordless, freaked out. Maybe I wasn't living very sanely,' says the Man Man frontman, who also goes by his keyboard-clobbering alter ego Honus Honus. While it's easy to nervously laugh at the absurdity of it all now, Kattner's personal life got so dire a couple summers ago that he found himself wondering whether music was worth it anymore; whether a mounting pile of heartbreak, the heaviness of several friend's tragic deaths, and IRS bills outweighed the need to express it all on stage or in the studio. 'It's funny, because in the past, I was able to take bad situations and turn them into something creative,' explains Kattner. 'This time I couldn't at all. I felt nothing, which was worse than feeling miserable or depressed.' As a black cloud hovered above his head on the east coast, Kattner did what many aimless artists have done before him-he put most of his possessions away in storage and lived out of a suitcase. His wandering took him to Los Angeles, Austin, Portland, and wherever else a friend had a couch, floor space, and patience to spare. In the end, it took many months for the singer/multi-instrumentalist to pick up the pieces and funnel an endless procession of love and loss into the demo stages of Man Man's fourth album, Life Fantastic. But once the breakthrough moments started kicking in, he had no choice but to soldier on. Take what happened on New Year's Day not too long ago. Already a few months into some actual songwriting, Kattner stumbled into his very own after school special, best summed up by a new song… 'If I razor cut some bangs,' he howls in 'Dark Arts,' clawing at the album's most unhinged arrangements, 'Will I forget who I am? Stare at the man who's in the mirror; how the fuck did I live this long, this way?' 'I sent my father a demo of that song,' says Kattner, 'and he called me afterwards to hear my voice. Make sure I was on the level. Everything about it sounds unhealthy, from the words to the vibe itself. But at the same time, I needed to get it all out of my head.' The exorcisms didn't end there, of course. Thanks to a renewed sense of purpose, the songwriting for Life Fantastic continued throughout the past year alongside promising sessions with the rest of Man Man: Drummer/Percussionist Chris Powell and multi-instrumentalists Billy Dufala, Jamey Robinson, and Russell Higbee.. Which isn't to say that things came together quickly. Contrary to the shoot-first-and-ask-questions-later rep of the group's live show, Man Man records have always involved months-or in this case, years-of refinement to reach a level everyone's happy with. For instance, it took an entire day-literally two nine-hour stretches-to develop just two verses in the aforementioned 'Dark Arts.' 'That's just the way that I work,' explains Kattner. 'I usually have to sing something at least 300 times before I bring it to the band. I work on the melody and the cadence, but I also want a delivery that feels real. I have to be able to sell what I'm saying, even if that mean sitting there with one verse on repeat." Not every song was the sonic equivalent of giving birth, however. Life Fantastic's title track is one example of every last piece falling into place perfectly, from subdued bursts of brass and swooning strings to a piano progression that literally dances circles around anyone within earshot. And then there's 'Steak Knives.' Easily one of the most beautiful, barebones cuts in the Man Man catalog, it sounds like a cavernous confessional set against creeping chords and heart-sinking chorus lines. Simply put, the thing's gonna make at least one person cry this year. To add to the considerable headphone candy quotient of the entire LP, Life Fantastic is the first Man Man album with a proper producer behind the boards. And not just any knob-twiddler, either. We're talking Mike Mogis, the Bright Eyes member responsible for the widescreen backdrops of nearly every major Saddle Creek release. 'The songs were fully-formed entities by the time we got to Mike's studio,' says Kattner, 'But he was there to say things like, 'Okay, that's a bit much.' He was able to help us carve the beauty out of the chaos we brought. It wasn't whittling down the points; it was sharpening them so they'd puncture even deeper.' Mogis was also there to fulfill any random requests the band may have (a gang chorus here, a childlike melody there, even some field recordings) and flesh out their flashiest ideas with the delicate string arrangements of fellow Bright Eyes member Nate Walcott (see: the climatic close of 'Oh, La Brea' for Man Man at their most cinematic). All while maintaining the order ab chao ethos that's been at the core of Man Man since their rail-jumping 2004 debut, The Man In a Blue Turban With a Face. 'I want us to be the kind of band you could bring home to your parents,' says Kattner, 'but at the same time, they're worried you might steal or break something. And you know what? They appreciate you for that very reason.'

Location Auditorium Shores Stage (Lady Bird Lake)

Artists  Middle Brother
event::about  Middle Brother played their first show at 2010’s SXSW – a tiny, late-night, unannounced event under the moniker “MG&V.” Other than recording the album and rehearsing once, they had never played the songs live. The audience (and the mob of onlookers crammed in the doorways and windows) was treated to an impossible-to-forget set by a band of musical comrades who seemed genuinely surprised by the fire that was ignited on stage. It was a rollicking and boisterous show that could have fallen apart at any moment and instead centrifuged into melodic and harmonic brilliance. What held it together was each member’s sense of song and performance – a perfect, intuitive balance of craft and feel, equal parts playful and earnest. In a time when synthesizers and laptops are taking over stages, Goldsmith, McCauley and Vasquez are leading the pack of young rock songwriters who strive to carry on the tradition of figures such as Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, and Tom Petty. Middle Brother came together in mid-2009 when the three songsmiths realized, after several on-stage collaborations, that they shared a unique vision and wanted to take it one step further, into the studio. Their songs are anthemic, soulful, passionate and confessional. The 12 tracks on Middle Brother are the result of their off-the-cuff yet diligent workshop experience. The songs are world-class, the performances raw and immediate as each member pushed the other to bring the best of what they do to the proceedings. The record captures a potent moment in time for these three burgeoning song-writing stars who are just beginning to feel the real power in their respective talents. The members of Middle Brother are confident, but not resolute and stuck. They are willing to explore and are open to each other’s ideas as they work towards the common ideal of the redemptive power of the song.

event::about  NERVO are Mim and Liv Nervo. This feisty sister tag-team have already started making waves. Best known for their collaboration with David Guetta on his recent Grammy winning smash hit "When Love Takes Over" (performed by Kelly Rowland), they are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with on the dance music scene. Based in both London & L.A, these globe-trotting Australian-born DJs are making serious noises on both shores of the Atlantic with their infectious blend of chunky electro-house. With a distinctive style and sassy image - NERVO's DJ style is beat driven, bold, sassy, deep and dirty. They have already played main stage at Miami's Ultrafest, smashed it at Lolopolooza, spun the opening of Space Ibiza, opened at F*** Me I'm Famous for David Guetta and Will.I.Am. Most recently, they were the guest DJ's at the prestigious ARIA's, televised prime-time across Australia. Unsurprisingly, the media there adore them; press includes a 12 page spread in January's InStyle magazine. The talent doesn't stop with their DJing. As songwriters NERVO have been busy behind the scenes for years with their great sense of melody and clever lyrics. The girls have co-written three songs on David Guetta's current album 'One Love', written and produced several songs on Ke$ha's debut album 'Animal' and have a cut on Kylie's Aphrodite. Their passion for dance music has now led to a host of studio collaborations with a list of acts that reads like a who's who in dance music, including, Deadmau5, Roger Sanchez, Aviici, Kaskade and Armin Van Buuren – as they work on their forthcoming artist album for Virgin Records, set for release in 2012. Watch this space for more exiting music from this dynamic duo.

New York has Fashion Week, Austin has Style By.

But Style X will not only champion the emerging trends in Austin’s style sphere, but also the imaginative and noteworthy talents from across the globe. Debuting during the 25th Anniversary of South by Southwest Music, Style X is the next and natural evolution of the internationally-renowned festival and conference.

Style X includes a pop-up retail showcase that will serve as the official shopping experience of SXSW with dozens of brands from around the country bringing the latest designs in screenprinting and design, women’s, menswear, streetwear, swimwear and accessories. Also, Style By will host multiple fashion shows, each celebrating a different segment of style. Stay tuned for more information on the runway shows.

Music has always been a source for fashion trends and style and Style X is the world’s first event bringing those two together with a keen focus on the up-and-coming. Just as the music, film and technology makers reflect the innovative and creative capital of their respective industries, Style X will represent the inventive and inspired work of style makers from all over the world. They will be from places as far as Houston and Hong Kong and they will offer everything from eyeglasses and t-shirts to dresses and sneakers. The style will be by them, but this event will be for you.

The debut release of Kansas City band Capybara is filled to the brim with jangly synth melodies, light falsetto harmonies, and a syncopated percussive style that perpetually threatens to start a raucous party. Try Brother, self-produced in the Spring of 2009 in the mountains of northern New Mexico, blends earnest eyes-wide-open lyrics with delicate multi-instrumental arrangements. Their style draws on many influences, evoking classical chamber pop, down-home banjo folk rock, and soaring indie riffs in equal measures.

The Felice Brothers
141 schedule::attendees
Location Auditorium Shores Stage (Lady Bird Lake)
eventtype  Music
event::about  The Felice Brothers – Bio Celebration, Florida out April 19, 2011 on Fat Possum '…what separates The Felices' mud-stomping folk from that of their peers is their no-winking honesty – the sense that these songs and the places and people they're singing about aren't literary devices but actual people doing their damnedest to rage against the growing darkness.' – Filter Good Music Guide, 2009 Here's what's already known about The Felice Brothers: they are a close-knit band of two brothers and three longtime friends, all in their twenties. They are self-taught, not one of them played an instrument prior to the band's inception in 2006 when they started busking in New York City subway stations. The Felice Brothers have released three full-length albums; their last, Yonder Is The Clock, on Team Love Records (2009). The majority of their work was recorded in a converted chicken coop in upstate New York near their hometown of Palenville. Esquire, Filter, The New York Times, NPR, Spin, Time Out New York, Uncut, and Under The Radar have praised them, among others. They are on virtually constant tour in the States and overseas, and have performed at festivals including Bonnaroo, All Points West, Outside Lands, Langerado, and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. Recognized for their live show, The Felice Brothers will play for their audience come hell or high water; the foremost example is their transcendent performance at the 2008 Newport Folk Festival, where they soldiered on, unplugged, in the rain, and barefoot in the mud after a lightning bolt shorted their stage's power supply. Here's what might come as a surprise about The Felice Brothers: their new and fourth LP Celebration, Florida is an exhilarating amalgamation of frightening horn sections, unexpected 808s, ambient synth lines, schoolyard taunts, booming, primitive drum beats, heavy bass lines, piano, violin, accordion, ringing guitars, rave beats, and sinister acid jazz that captivates and mystifies. Recorded in the library and theater of Beacon, NY's old high school, the band explores a multitude of sounds and instrumentation throughout the expansive album. It's inspired, imaginative, heady, menacing, passionate, and rollicking. Most importantly, it's as steadfastly authentic as ever, expanding upon the dark, woozy undercurrent of ramshackle barroom blues, vaudevillian atmospherics, and surreal storytelling of their previous albums. Under The Radar wrote in a review of Yonder Is The Clock that The Felice Brothers find 'inspiration and freedom rather than constraints in the traditions of folk music.' Celebration, Florida revels in this inventive, outlaw spirit; it's the sound of a band that knows its roots and knows where it's growing. It's a group who just might expand the definition of Americana music along the way. Celebration, Florida casts scenes of dreamy characters and stories interwoven like a block of primetime TV. Among the tales: a young woman who sets off to find a secret paradise; a teenager who enters a boxing gym in Catskill, NY; a late night host recounting his rise to fame to his honeybee while traveling in a private jet; shady degenerates who get lost in a mystery concerning a Honda Civic; a young girl who crimps her hair and spies her dead father driving down the road; a Wall Street scandal hits a little too close to home; and even a trip through space to find long forgotten Hollywood parties and hopefully make it back there in time to walk down the red carpet. The Felice Brothers are: Ian Felice, James Felice, Christmas, Greg Farley, and David Turbeville.

Artists  ALTAAR
event::about  ALTAAR is the new band of Andreas Tylden and Sten Ove Toft. Tylden has been the single most important character within Norwegian hardcore the last decade through now disbanded JR Ewing, and Toft is Norway's king of noise. They've assembled an all-star team for ALTAAR, consisting of Espen Hangård (KILLL/Diskord/NoPlaceToHide), Didrik Telle (Obliteration), Kenneth Lamond (JR Ewing) and sometimes Jørgen Munkeby (Shining). Together they fuse inspiration ranging from Phillip Glass to Barthory, the result is a diabolic soundscape and soundwaves which transmit emotion and atmosphere. Defying the normal boundries of genres, their music is best described as droning doom-sludge with black metal aesthetics. The result is a jaw-dropping, fantasticly intense live-experience somewhere between SUNN0))), Isis and Wolves In The Throne Room. Here's a snippet to see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AS7ck_ggqWQ They are currently building a great buzz, and were one of the most acclaimed bands among foreign journalists at last year's by:larm and Øya festivals. Spinner, The Fader and CMJ Magazine were among media lauding them. Their debut cassette is due for re-release on vinyl this spring, and their debut album is due early this summer. One to watch as a coming stalwarts of Norwegian metal.

Equally at home at a beer joint or concert hall, the Bandits meld old-time, bluegrass, western swing and country with the sounds of string band instruments to create the "North Texas Skunkgrass" sound. The Bandits first album, "Smells Like Grass" was self-released in 2008. The Bandits have taken their show on the road throughout their home state of Texas and continue touring throughout the south.

Artists  Erin McLaughlin
event::about  Im Erin McLaughlin, I sing and write songs and I live in Southern California. Sometimes I feel like Ive lived at least two lives, I say that mostly because of the experiences Ive had. I used to travel a lot, and by that I mean, after high school I moved out of my folks and never stayed in one place for more than a few months for nearly 6 years. I got to see a lot of the world, which was nice. Along the way I would play other peoples guitars and sing other peoples songs because thats what you do when youre a gypsy. Finally I moved home to go to school. I bought my own guitar at that point and wrote a couple of songs. But then, in 2007 my little brother died. He was 16. He took his own life. Its not enough to say that I was ruined. I've had to rebuild so much of my world, the views I held and the things I've wanted for my life. Music helped me process a lot of that information. Naturally, I wrote more songs. Some of them are sad. Some are not as. My friends helped me make an EP- it's called Something Like a Miracle. Sean Watkins (Nickel Creek/ Fiction Family) played the guitar. I also got the rest of Fiction Familys rhythm section to play on it. It sounds pretty good. I'm writing new songs now too. Benmont Tench said my new stuff sounds the best. I was encouraged by that, that's why I mention it. I play shows, and I thrive on the energy exchanged between myself and the listener. In San Diego I play at Lestats and sometimes the HOB. In LA I play at the Hotel Cafe, where recently I opened for the Secret Sisters- those girls are some real sweethearts. In March I get to play SXSW for the first time. I just can't tell you how excited that makes me. One day Id like to go on the road with Ryan Adams, maybe have him sing harmony on a song and share a mic. What a thrill that would be. People seem to get attached to me when I play live. They believe in me I think. I take it as a compliment. Im not a big deal. But I'm not sayin I wouldn't like to be. I really just want to tour and make great records, have a date at the Opry and have my songs played on NPR all the time. I don't think that's too tall an order. Just a little honesty, a little of who I am, what I do and what I would like to be doing at some point. I quit college for now because I actually was good at it. But the late nights in Hollywood were starting to wear on my honors Philosophy grade. I guess Id rather do one thing well than many things in mediocrity. So its music. And maybe one day when Im on the road (with Ryan Adams) my life- apart from my perspective- wont look so very different than it used to. Thanks for reading. E

All three mostly live and work in Malmo, Sweden and create music in a secluded 19th-century garden shack with the help of "darkness, voices, quiet instruments, curiosity, nightmares, melodies and terrible weather". They have stated that they strive towards "impulsive beauty of various kinds" while trying to avoid "rationalization, self-consciousness and irony". Some people call their music surreal. A lot of people call the music soothing. Almost everyone says it makes them think of trees.

Location Speakeasy
eventtype  Music
event::about  Erik Hall grew up in the center of Chicago, among sky scrapers, traffic lights, pedestrians, parks, factories, and Lake Michigan. He studied classical piano from the age of 8, played guitar in rock bands and percussion in the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra, and studied jazz and sound recording at the University of Michigan School of Music. He is a founding member of the band NOMO and has recorded and toured with Michigan bands His Name Is Alive and Saturday Looks Good to Me. In 2009 Erik completed work on his first batch of original songs and named the project In Tall Buildings. The self-recorded debut album was released in April of 2010 on Chicago's Whistler Records, and the Chicago Tribune immediately praised the music as being 'dense, textured, [and] hypnotic.' American Songwriter magazine referred to In Tall Buildings as 'the aural representation of a pleasantly scattered mind,' and the album began to spread over the college radio airwaves, charting on the CMJ Radio 200 at #158. Erik spent 2010 bringing In Tall Buildings to stages throughout Chicago and beyond. The live band calls upon NOMO drummer and life-long collaborator, Quin Kirchner, and Chicago bassist/composer Matt Ulery (Eastern Blok, Matt Ulery's Loom). The trio delivers an apt distillation of Erik's songs' most defining elements, and they have shared stages with NOMO, The Hood Internet, Voxtrot, Born Ruffians, and Vieux Farka Toure.

eventtype  Music
Artists  Suzanna Choffel
event::about  "...Suzanna's learned from some of the greats about phrasing, playing around with delivery and beat, singing the emotions and the words rather than merely the melody. She slots nicely alongside Norah Jones, Madeleine Peyroux and Fiona Apple." Steve Hochman, Los Angeles Times. Suzanna Choffel is from Austin – born and raised. But shake the stereotype of Texas singer/songwriter like a snow globe; with influences that range from Erykah Badu and Paul Simon to Bebel Gilberto and Marie Daulne, Suzanna is as unique as the maelstrom of snow inside the glass ball. “I’m influenced by a lot of different things. I listened to World music in college, Reggae and Brazilian music and African music . . . I love jazz, I love hip-hop, I love pop. I love a really sweet story or emotional kind of experience and that’s what I strive for in my songwriting...visual lyrics and a strong melody, where the music is able to move people.” Suzanna’s music is difficult to categorize. Rock music critic Jim DeRogatis, sums it well: “equal parts beat poetry, smoky soul grooves and indie-pop eccentricity.” Whatever the descriptors may be, she has a distinctive sound for an artist from Texas, but it is still Texan. “Texas music is soulful and rootsy. Whether it’s rock, pop, blues, folk or country, it always has a raw feel to it and tends to have a sway and a swagger. I believe that comes from the heat. A lot of southern music shares that element, but Texas is unique in that it has a bit of the west, too, and the influences of our neighbors south of the border.” Suzanna captured the big musical heart of Austin with her independently released debut album, Shudder & Rings. Margaret Moser, the grand dame of the Austin music scene and music editor of The Austin Chronicle, dubbed her Austin’s "Next Fun Fearless Female Rock Star.” Driven by the single, “Hey Mister,” and a YouTube hit for the video of “Raincloud,” Suzanna wrapped-up three-years of promoting and touring for the album by winning the Austin Music Award for “Indie Artist of the Year” in 2009. Along the way she also won top honors in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition, International Songwriting Competition, and the FameCast competition. On her upcoming album, Steady Eye Shaky Bow, Suzanna weaves a rich tapestry of colorful emotions and delivers, lyrically and musically, on the new voice in town promise of her debut. The album’s title is taken from, “Archer,” a lamenting song of disaffection wherein she sketches her lover with a “steady eye but a shaky bow,” and then calls him out, “you shot too low.” “Animal” continues on the theme of vexed love, “First you win my heart, then you tear it apart! You're a liar, that's what kind of animal you are.” "They've been in some of the best bands in Austin over the last 15, 20 years. So when I first got with this band, I was super-nervous until it became apparent they liked playing with me. My name's on the marquee – 'Suzanna Choffel' – but the music includes everyone. We're a band.” While putting the finishing touches on her new album a nice surprise fell into Suzanna’s lap in the form of an unwitting on-screen appearance in the documentary film, Catfish. Suzanna is heard and seen in the film via a YouTube clip of her sultry performance of the Jimmy Driftwood classic, “Tennessee Stud.” How the video made it into the film is as intriguing as the plot line itself but suffice to say that she got hooked into the movie on the web in a twist-filled true story of the filmmaker’s personal tale of a virtual relationship. Steady Eye Shaky Bow is due out in February 2011. It was produced in Austin by Danny Reisch, whose recent work includes White Denim and Bright Light Social Hour.

event::about  When he was seven-years-old, takashi Kamide lost his left foot shorty after having been diagnosed with cancer. By seventeen he had conquered the disease. Not long after, another illness befell him for which there is no known medical treatment and by all appearances was terminal; he couldnft eat anything, and lost weight from half of his body. It was another arduous journey to recovery, but as the artist states, what saved him was simply saying gLOVEh. At that stage in his life, he was angry at everything and everyone, but his mother, father and many friends rallied for him, and never stopped believing he would fully recover, praying for him all the while he was fighting these illnesses. When at last it seemed he had beaten the disease forever, his doctor proclaimed it miraculous. Now, takashi KAMIDE believes there are many miracles all over the world, and they can be realized readily, when you realize the potency of love. But there is a parallel story that took place for KAMIDE: that of music. At six years of age, he was diligently practicing classical piano until discovering Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett which eventually led him to switch to jazz piano and subsequently an interest in the accordion. Working from a humble studio in his native Japan, he creates minimalist original masterpieces that evoke everything from Yann Tiersen or Penguin Cafe Orchestra to lost takes from Vangelisf score from Blade Runner. What is different takashi KAMIDE's accordion? Most of people expect accordion is sounds like world music or traditional music. But takashi KAMIDE plays his original compositions, even if he plays covers, sounds very crative and impressive. He is playing new style of solo accordion you've ever listened!! When he makes music tracks, takashi KAMIDE also plays many instruments himself, piano, guitar, and more. You can see it when you listen his music. takashi KAMIDE try to make sounds deeply, you can find something inside your beautiful part if you listen takashi KAMIDE's music.

eventtype  Music
Artists  Wolf & Cub
event::about  It’s been over three years since Australian quartet Wolf & Cub broke cover with their debut album Vessels. The album was released around the world and the band found itself touring Japan, Europe, the UK, and the States, as well as appearing TV On The Radio, The Killers, Queens of the Stone Age, Wolfmother, and Primal Scream. Once their uproarious lives settled down a bit, the guys of Wolf & Cub headed back Down Under to get started on some new material. But given the restlessness at the core of Wolf & Cub’s creativity, there was never any chance things would be done the same way a second time. New influences, new gear, and new ideas necessitate a new approach. A major part of this new approach was the band’s decision to work with fellow Australian producer Chris Colonna (aka Bumblebeez), someone guaranteed to challenge the band in intense new ways. Colonna’s hip-hop cut-and-paste production style seemed an odd fit at first, and was originally shrugged off as too left of field even by the band’s standards. However they were intrigued enough to make the trek out to Colonna’s studio in his hometown of Braidwood just outside of Australia’s capital city Canberra, to work on a track they had previously demo-ed. And that’s where Science & Sorcery began. What had originally concerned the band now inspired them; there was energy in Colonna’s take on their music that they could feed off the excitement in operating outside their comfort zone. Existing demos were built on, disassembled, reconstructed, sidelined, rediscovered, and reassembled. New material was built from the ground up. During the early stages nothing was considered stable, everything had the possibility to change, evolve, disappear and be reborn. Through this process the body of work that constitutes Science & Sorcery eventually took form. Science & Sorcery is a continuation in the ever-evolving sound of Wolf & Cub. Main songwriter Joel Byrne captures the whole experience when he says; “This album was made amidst a sea of conflict; conflict within the band, between the band and Chris, within myself, so in order to actually complete it we were all forced to address and deal with certain issues that were becoming road blocks. This album is really about trying to move forward in life and overcoming those tactics you unconsciously put in place to sabotage it. It’s about fear of change. Overall, it’s not an attempt by us to change “our sound” or do something completely different from previous releases, it’s more a case of us trying to alter or experiment with the process that creates the outcome. I’ll leave it up to others to decide if the sound has gone anywhere else, because I don’t know where it was before. It’s still Wolf & Cub, just another piece of the puzzle.” Wolf & Cub is: Joel Byrne – Guitars/Vocals Wade Keighran – Bass Marvin Hammond – Drums/Percussion/Keys Joel Carey – Drums Science And Sorcery Out Now on Last Gang Records
