By Lexi Delarosa Music Journalist The Margaritaville multimillionaire himself, Jimmy Buffett, turned the southeast corner of the UT campus into a luau party as he graced the stage at 8 p.m. on June 11, 2022, at the Moody Center. His Life on the Flip Side Redux Tour was the fourteenth event to take place in Austin’s new arena that opened in late April. Now, I was under the impression that […]
By Hannah Walls Music Journalist In 2018, indie rock group Mt. Joy played a SXSW show at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q with only three songs on their setlist. I had the opportunity to hear this little anecdote this past Saturday while anxiously awaiting their 2022 performance on the Outdoor Stage at Lady Bird Lake, the largest SXSW stage. As I stood in the crowd of what had to be hundreds of people […]

By McKenna Wells Local Music Director Thursday and Friday at Precision Camera & Film was full of music as they put on the Take a Shot showcase.

By McKenna Wells Local Music Director Country music isn’t what most would associate with SXSW music festival but, Monday night at the Blind Pig Pub would have changed your mind. I was fortunate enough to able to see Austin band, Mike and the Moonpies headline for KOKE FM’s rooftop showcase. Mike and the Moonpies frontman, Mike Harmeier started the band in 2007 and they have since released eight albums including […]
By Jordan Young Rap R&B Director SXSW has become an event for affluent millennials and older to party under the guise of networking. As I walked the streets of downtown Austin, the sight of middle-aged white men and women in business attire became a common theme. I would be lying if I told you I didn't anticipate that SXSW would lack diversity, However, the lack of college-age kids in a […]
