Songkick at SxSW

Every year, it’s the same feeling of jealousy when you start seeing the “I’m away at SxSW” out of office emails.. We’re feeling it too here at Songkick HQ as founders Ian and Michelle are over there doing their thang for Songkick. But they’ve kept us in the loop, as we’ve been hosting the Music is Great Britain Facebook page and feeding through their updates direct from Austin.

Here’s a summary and photo diary of what’s been going down throughout the week, with some ‘ones to watch’ artists sandwiched in-between:
