By Raoul Hernandez, March 5, 2012, 10:01am, Earache!

Austin music festival Numero Uno, South by Southwest, presently hammers everyone locally, party hosts readying the siege. Once that blows over, the Old Settler's Music Festival rolls in Apr. 19-22. Now comes the initial line-up for Fiesta Gardens' annual Pachanga Latino Music Festival, May 11-12.

Early bird tickets go on sale tomorrow, Tuesday, Mar. 6, 10am, at the Pachanga website. Friday headliner, Puerto Rican powerhouse Calle 13, constitutes quite the coup for the DIY local music gathering, then Saturday breaks open with a goodly portion of the following:

Alejandro Escovedo (Austin)
Ana Tijoux (Chile)
Brownout (Austin)
Chico Trujillo (Chile)
Forro in the Dark (Brazil/NYC)
Davíd Garza (Austin)
