For those of you asking what SXSW is (yes, I have people asking me what SXSW is), according to it’s wiki, South by Southwest (SXSW) is a set of interactive, film, and music festivals and conferences that take place every spring in Austin, Texas, United States of America. SXSW first began in 1987 and is centered on the downtown Austin Convention Center. Each of the three parts runs relatively independently, with different start and end dates.

I will going to cover the music portion the best I can with our newest member, Tanner. Neither of us have experienced this and are currently coordinating schedules so we can bring you the best of our insane journey to center of the future of music as we know it. This is going to fun.

Here are some of our favorites to give you an idea what we’re looking forward to.
