Ladies and gents, SXSW starts THIS WEEK, so we’d like to take the opportunity to remind you to download our 100% FREE Extended Family Presents: SXSW 2012 Mixtape. It was recently featured on Sounds That Matter, and is only available for download until March 13th. Get it while you still can, and read the STM blurb here.
Q:Any chance of us out of towners getting a poster with the download code from one of those release shows?
We’re working on getting some more of Pearl and the Beard’s posters with download codes for the “Prodigal Daughter” single for our store (see the posters here). They are beautifully screenprinted, contain a download code for the band’s new single, and have previously been available only at the single release shows. We hope to have them by the end of the month! We’ll definitely post an announcement when they’re available, so keep an eye out.
Dry the River have created this gorgeous campaign to promote their debut album. They’re also featured on our Extended Family Presents: SXSW 2012 Mixtape. Enjoy the video, and download the mix right here!
Some former tour mates of mine, Dry The River, have a brilliant grassroots campaign for their debut album.
