"2012 SXSW Opening Day Bash" Amazon sampler

SXSW in Austin, TX is often thought of as a tech show but there is a huge music component. Every year, up and coming bands play the show in the hopes of getting noticed or getting a wider audience. And every year, Amazon posts a selection of free music from those bands.

This year’s selection is from bands like Pillow fight, Bright Moments, Polica and others.
