The Austin Chronicle is an independent, locally owned and operated alternative newsweekly that reflects the heart and soul of Austin, Texas.
Traditionally, March is an important month for the music industry, major and indie labels loosening a downpour of releases like spring rain. Add SXSW into the equation, and you’ve got a flood on your hands. This year the Chronicle starts its onslaught of SXSW Record Reviews a week early, tagged with showcase information (subject to change), because it never rains in Austin anymore.
