Where to Find Philly Area Acts Down at SXSW!?!

OK - SXSW is absolute chaos, but we wanted to help all those heading down to find some of the rad Philly acts making the trek down to Austin. This is the info that we’ve gathered from the e-mails we received from the bands and the internet. Most of the shows are free, RSVP, or SXSW wristband. Remember to check out what is required for admission for each event. We labeled some of the ones that we definitely knew were FREE. Special thanks to Josa Lazas from Golden Ages who was nice enough to share his personal list of info that he gathered about his SXSW-bound peers! We’ll probably make more edits as the week goes on and things pop up. Feel free to send any tips or let us know if there are any other shows with Philly artists that we might want to add to the list at thedelimagazinephiladelphia@gmail.com. Cheers! - The Deli Staff
