| Austin Vida | Letter from the Editor |
|
March 8, 2010. It's going to be a crazy month for music fans in Austin, and the Austin Vida crew isn't taking a break any time soon. We'll be doing tons of interviews during the South By Southwest music fest with bands from all over the world. But the fun doesn't stop with SXSW. The last week of March will be epic: a Nacional listening party (3/30), Sexy Marvin at Stubb's (3/31), an Austin Vida local showcase at Ruta Maya (4/1) and Los Amigos Invisibles at Antone's (4/2).
