PHOX,
the six piece indie band from Baraboo, with a brilliant Daytrotter session early in 2013 and the ep “Confetti” has culminated in great success over last year, drawing big crowds at Lollapalooza Festival and a recent I tunes festival appearance.
Formed by David Bayley this four piece released this track “Pyslla” middle of last year , a groovy sensual quality with a similar feel to Alt-J Vibes
the other UK band that has made a huge impact at SXSW
along with Arthur Beatrice, Royal Blood, Eagulls and Glass Animals are of course WOLF ALICE this north London four piece started as a solo project for vocalist Ellie Roswell she teamed up with Jeff Oddie last year and became the band to see Ellies Vocal is flawless on stage its smooth clear and strong and the band is incredibily tight.They were the most blogged about band in the UK
Another English band that has stormed SXSW,just for their amazing quality, although we knew they would, the bass guitar driven rock and awesome drums of this band coupled with some great songs
the Leeds Punk Elite band Eagulls were among the highlights at SXSW bringing rock back to 2014, fronted by the sneering George Mitchell their self titled debut is out now
Recorded live at the 2013 SXSW in Mellow Johnnys Bike shop

Another great band on the Bella Union label coming from Berlin, featuring Rosie Blair Vocals, Michel Collet Guitars and Louis McGuire Drums with a deep love of The Cocteau Twins, The Cure and the pop of Madonna they make charming Graceful Pop
as its the start of SXSW in Austin Texas this is a must see musician from the Austin music scene SHAKEY GRAVES
picks a great tune
to celebrate the start of SXSW here is Mr SHAKEY GRAVES a long term favourite I love his style the Old guitar the Rock’n’Roll style microphone and the percussive set up of drum pedal and tambourine on an old suitcase
Dedicated to all jangly indie/guitar/jangle-pop
