February 3, 2010. Austin Vida would like to thank everyone who came out to our Nacional Records listening party at Mi Casa. Last night we gave away t-shirts, CDs and a pair of tickets to Carnaval Brasileiro. We will give away two more pairs of tickets to this year's Brazilian-style Austin festival. It takes place at the Palmer Events Center on Feb. 20. If you want a chance to win tickets this month, all you have to do is be a fan of Austin Vida's Facebook page. Click here.
