Mix Tape Nine - Austin
SXSW is a very short month away and I’ve been going through the schedules and noting bands I’d like to see. Of course half the fun of SXSW is discovering new bands, but you’ve got to start somewhere. Here’s a mix of some of the bands I’m most looking forward to seeing, you’ll excuse the lack of commentary this time I hope!
