Irish acts for SXSW Festival confirmed
The Irish contingent has been confirmed for South By Southwest, the annual showcase festival in Austin, Texas, which is arguably the most important shop window for new acts in the U.S. – and a few old ones to boot.
Hoping to woo the record company, publishing, TV & film soundtrack sourcing and concert promoter masses are Cathy Davey (pictured), Iain Archer, Paddy Casey, Oppenheimer, Fight Like Apes, Channel One, Delorentos, Distractors, Driving By Night, Laura Izibor and The Bleedin’ Bleedins.
Running from March 12 to 16, delegates will also be able to feast on the likes of Dolly Parton, The Black Crowes, REM and recent HP interviewees Vampire Weekend.
