SXSW 2011: Occam's Razor House X House Show (Like an actual house show!!)

This is the 3rd anniversary of our free unofficial SXSW house show. I have split the music day into two parts: THE EARLY SHOW (all-ages welcome + folk + rawk + popular music) which begins at 2pm; and THE LATE SHOW (21+ welcome for experimental + electronic + psychedelic music) which begins approximately at dusk and ends when Jennifer says "Evan, get rid of those oblivion-seeking strangers dancing in my kitchen." Thanks to Zico Coconut Water for sponsoring our show again! Your baby coconuts are the sovereign rulers of an empire in our mouths!

SXSW 2009: Friday's Best FREE/RSVP Parties

It's kinda daunting looking at how many FREE parties are going on during SXSW. We took the liberty of posting all these parties throughout February and this month, but just thought we'd break them down day-by-day to have them all in one place. If you click on the party it'll take you to the original post if you like to check out all the bands, set lists, locations and such. Check back tomorrow for Saturday parties. We're knee deep in the partying now, hopefully you are too. I love SXSW but I'm glad it only comes once a year!

We've been getting a lot of emails about the FADER Fort party, the RSVP list is unfortunately closed now. Sorry!

SXSW 2009: Consequence of Sound Official Showcase (3/20)

Our good buddies Consequence of Sound are throwing their first annual SXSX showcase, which includes our fellow Austinites, Future Clouds & Radar headlining the shindig.

[Consequence of Sound]

Here's how CoS put it:

Entitled simply as Listen!, this year’s event is designed to highlight six of music’s most talented up-and-comers in one night, under one roof. Spanning multiple genres and demographics, the bill will reflect the diverse tastes seen on CoS on a daily basis, while still maintaining an incredibly catchy flow, all with the intention of offering an evening that will not only attract fans of all types, but keep them glued to the action.

When: Friday, March 20, 2009
Where: The Wave (408 E 6th St) | Austin, TX

Schedule:
Shad (8:00)
Eksi Ekso (9:00)
The Tiny (10:00)
13ghosts (11:00)
Kittens Ablaze (12:00)
Future Clouds & Radar (1:00)

In the days leading up to the event, CoS will take a closer look at each of the six acts, complete with interviews and mp3s - check out an early preview below. They also have plans for the unofficial side of things, which will include a pretty stellar party or two.
