SXSW 2017 2017-03-14

The New Pornographers Vancouver BC CANADA

Future Islands Baltimore MD

4.29 4.35 Indie-rock-pop band with an animated front man with unique soulful vocals.

Har Mar Superstar Brooklyn NY

4.29 3.60 Har Mar is mesmerizing live but careful getting too close unless you want to get a special package delivered to your face. It's pop meets late 80's R&B meets funk and it's sexy as all hell.

Joywave Rochester NY

4.29 4.30 Well produced, high-energy indie-pop-rock

Coucheron Sandvika NORWAY

Noga Erez Tel Aviv ISRAEL

4.20 2.75 Producer/singer-songwriter with an occasional M.I.A. vibe. She's creates a wide range of sounds with only synths, broken beats and her voice.

Hurray for the Riff Raff New Orleans LA

4.17 3.95 Old timey folk music with strong female vocal lead.

Banks Los Angeles CA

4.17 2.60 Down-temp electronic with hints of pop and a female vocal that's smoky, sexy and dark.
