A few very big SXSW day shows were announced today, by names that you’d expect to produce stellar lineups: Pitchfork and Rhapsody.
Pitchfork, as usual, is hitting hard on Friday afternoon at Emo’s with a mix of just breaking (Wavves, the Mae Shi, School of Seven Bells) and already established (Little Boots, King Khan & the Shrines, Department of Eagles) names, taking over both indoor and outdoor stages at Emo’s.
Rhapsody is throwing out their killer lineup with an extended, hilariously dorky Henry V reference. Their shindig is set to go down Thursday at the Mohawk, also with School of Seven Bells (who will be back in town at the beginning of June with Black Moth Super Rainbow), local genre-defying rockers …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, Glasvegas, the Vivian Girls, and yet-to-be-announced suprise artists.
As the insanity approaches, expect more killer lineups to be announced, with some of the big names keeping their cards close to their chest for a big reveal. It’s only a few weeks away; prepare yourselves!
