While in years past, the whole SXSW shebang seemed to gain momentum as it progressed, this year you should be prepared to jump right in head first. This afternoon’s line-up inlcudes Tobacco, of Black Moth Super Rainbow, who we interviewed in May; the Beets, who we “introduced” earlier that same month; Real Estate, who we featured in November; and White Denim, another of this year’s Rated Rookies.
