Since SXSW is coming at us at what seems to be lightning speed, I thought it would be fun to mention some European bands that I'm really hoping catch live. (And by hoping to catch live, of course I mean take my broke ass to free shows. Blame it on the economy?)
Anyway, first up is Swedish band The Movits! Some basics to know about them: they hail from Northern Sweden, Stephen Colbert loves them, their music is bandstand rhythms meets hip hop-style lyrics, and they sing & swing in Swedish.
Also, they are always impeccably dressed like "Mad Men" extras, which is a huge plus in my book. It sounds like theirs will be a fun, dance-filled show to attend.
Some of their vids:
Here is their SXSW schedule so far:
- Mar 17 2010 1:00A The PureVolume House
