Some American - what is up

what is up

Springtime is springing, and SXSW is about to kick off the year’s musical festivities. In the event that you will not be in Austin, TX, why not see some live music closer to home? There’s not likely to be free PBR and the presence of every indie music notable trawling thousands of shows, but one shouldn’t get too greedy.
