The Nordic countries of Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, and Iceland have sent many artists to entertain at previous SXSW festivals, but this year is especially good. This is a collection of all the Nordic bands and artists I could find appearing at SXSW. This is by no means all of them... although you surely can't quibble at forty-five free mp3s, can you? David and The Citizens (Sweden - pictured above) a heart and a hand and the love for a band big Chill let's not fall apart [...]
This morning it is the 1st Saturday in a long ass time I have not had to work and I should be asleep but I have zero common sense. Kelly and I were looking fwd to sleeping in because she was suppose to not have to work as well but she got called in to work (such is the glamorous life of being an engineer). Anyways it is finally March and I can't believe how quickly this year is flying by and I can't wait for the warm weather that is hopefully just around the corner. Nothing really on the [...]
South By Southwest , Austin's week-long music/film/interactive festival, kicks off in less than two weeks. FreeIndie has been nominated for a SXSW web award in the music website category (we're up against the Dixie Chicks!), so we'll be making our way down south.

The event will span two days, and feature some of the strongest emerging acts from the Scandinavia area (thats Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Iceland for the geographically [...]

I hope that one-day layoff from South by Southwest bands wasn't panic-inducing for you. Breathe easily and indulge. Oh, and do please say "hello" (or "goodbye") to Au Revoir Simone (pic). Au Revoir Simone – Fallen Snow mp3 Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly – The Chronicles of a Bohemian Teenager (Part One) mp3 moi Caprice [...]

THE RESEARCH "Breaking Up" MOI CAPRICE s/t I'm about to say something really deep. Not, really. Every song ever is about love. There you go. Seriously. So, this is the day that we are told we are supposed to be in love or show our significant other how much we love them. Thankfully, mine let me off the hook this year because she wants to go to a party instead. Good, because I'm burnt out
