In the last episode I briefly commented on all of the festivals that are in store for this summer.  However, some festivals don't bother waiting until the busy season and get things started off early.  One of the first major US music festivals for the last 20 years has been South by Southwest held in Austin, TX.  There were a ton of great bands that played there this year so it was a bit difficult picking just one.  I ended up deciding on the North Mississippi Allstars who's musical style I believe represents this southernly located festival.  If you'd like to find other audience recordings from this year's SXSW check out the nearly full list over at largeheartedboy.com:
