Hour by Hour: A Guide to the Shows We're Seeing at SXSW 2016

Mar 14, 2016

The music portion of SXSW 2016 goes down this week, from March 15 - 20. Whether you're a first timer or an old hand, things can get really overwhelming. There are multiple shows going on at all times, and, as we've learned from bitter experience, putting together a schedule for each day is difficult.

In case you needed a bit of guidance, here's a list of who we currently plan on seeing at SXSW year. Obviously, things are likely to change and we'll be providing updates once we land in Austin, but these are our (highly optimistic) plans for now. Check out our provisional schedule for SXSW, and we hope to meet some of you soon.
