Slowcoustic Music Recommendations for SXSW – Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

As I will not be involved with anything to do with Austin, TX this week I thought I would at least give my recommendations on a daily basis on what I recommend and wish I could see for SXSW (music wise).  And if you are looking for an anti-SXSW diatribe, you will not find it – I am not going, have never been to but hope everyone gets the chance to see a band that they really love and “discover” someone that they will begin to love (music wise…more or less).

Wednesday, March 17th (St. Patty’s day!) recommendations:

~~~

Location: 18th Floor at Hilton Garden Inn (500 N IH 35)
Bands: Trespassers William & Brian Borcherdt

~~~

Location: The Ale House (310 E 6th St (Alley Entrance))
Bands: Anais Mitchell & Alina Simone

~~~

Location: Club de Ville (900 Red River St)
Bands: Dawes, Bowerbirds
**Brooklyn Vegan Show**

~~~

Location: Soho Lounge (217 E 6th St)
Bands: Justin Rutledge, Melissa McLelland, Luke Ducet
**Six Shooter Show**

~~~

Location: Spill (212 E. 6th St)
Bands: Black Eyed Dog, Joe Purdy

~~~

Location: The Velveeta Room (521 E 6th St)

~~~

This is all the shows that SXSW advertise on their schedule, so without going into PR emails and blogger house shows I am already full up with options and an impossible way to see them all in one night.  Oh, the decisions if I were in Texas tonight….instead I am here at work, sitting here, just…working.
