Seattle musicians head to SXSW

It’s that time of year. Time for bands from all over the world to make the pilgrimage to Austin, TX to show their stuff at South by South West. Most bands will arrange a tour that takes them to SXSW and then back home and will play several shows over a week in Austin with some days holding multiple showcases.

There is a crop of serious talent from the Seattle area making the journey and I wanted to take the time to highlight some of the artists you should know about. Here are some videos and tunes to check out.
