HERE'S THE 3RD ANNUAL TALENTFILTER "SXSW SHOWS TO SEE" LIST!
HERE'S THE 3RD ANNUAL TALENTFILTER "SXSW SHOWS TO SEE" LIST!
OK. ..So if you're a regular reader, you remember that we blew it last year and didn't get a list up in time. So it's really the '2nd annual'. Whatevz. But fret not, friends - this year we're being thorough!
Now ...Not including the 14 million 'non-sanctioned' daytime parties offering free beer, handjobs and indie rock, there are over 1800 bands performing at sanctioned showcases in Austin this year. Seriously too much to try and conquer (although those with strong hearts can grab the big ol' list of free shows from our friend Scott Perry at http://www.newmusictipsheet.com).
This year, we took every other 'industry insider list', had conversations with those in the know about shows on their personal 'must-see' lists, and compiled a filtered (heh) concentrated list of all the showcases you NEED to be at. Even if the bands are already signed/published, there will be some people there that you'll want to bump into for networking purposes, etc.
Have a look, and feel free to cut and paste and share with friends!
ONE MORE THING: If you're an artist (or represent an artist) that we've ALREADY FEATURED IN THE PAST (no newbies for this please) are we missed you on our list, E-mail us at TALENTfilter@gmail.com and we'll stick you on here.
