Best International Music Ambassadors
ATX6
A conversation with Music Canada’s VP of Public Affairs at South by Southwest last year sparked the Austin music and film promotional project ATX6. Three months later, songwriter Chris Brecht and six hard-working, prodigious songwriters were on a plane for Toronto to represent Austin music at NXNW. Brecht, who runs Austin Independent Radio online, and company then shuttled off to Germany’s Reeperbahn Festival. This spring, he rounded up another sextet for NXNE, a crew then bound for France this week to represent the Live Music Capital. Brecht’s likely already prepping next year’s chosen ones.
