As a very good friend of mine said: "I love chicken wings,
HeartBeats I could eat chickens wings for every meal but eventually I'd get tired of it." Same goes for bands heavy on keyboard synths and electronic beats. SXSW has been heavy on these bands in recent past, is this year the industry starts going in a different direction? Grimes -- another one of those 'cute girl with a keyboard' bands -- will be a good litmus test.
FIDLAR is right in your face from the very first strum of its guitar strings.
beats Studio The garage/punk band is releasing a new EP the Tuesday of SXSW, which is good timing if the new material turns out to be any good.
Even though Nneka's catchy single, "My Home" technically came out last year it doesn't dilute the quality of her third album, Soul is Heavy. Her voice is reminiscent of Erykah Badu and is supported by thick, lush sounds and unique percussion.
Santigold is a poor man's M.I.A. and has taken twice as long to produce a follow-up album.
studio headphones Certainly her set will be entertaining but it's unfair to expect Santigold to be a headliner.
