Welcome to SXSW 2013
The South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conferences & Festivals (March 8-17, 2013) offer the unique convergence of
original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. Fostering creative and professional growth
alike, SXSW® is the premier destination for discovery.
Nakia is bringing his powerful voice and music to the SXSWfm Radio Day Stage on Saturday, March 16. Nakia possesses both texture and flexibility: he can sound rigid on one line, and fluid on the next line. No matter what, Nakia’s voice has power. The music is rock and roll infused with soul, blues, R&B, and more! Nakia lives in Austin, and it shows through his music. His songs are reminiscent of ZZ Top and Stevie Ray Vaughan, as well as John Mayer and John Legend. Stop by the Radio Day Stage at noon on Saturday, March 16, to see Nakia and more SXSW Showcasing Artists.
By now you have no doubt heard about the VEVO TV Control Room (4th and
Lavaca), VEVO’s home base during SXSW and command central for performances
by HAIM and Krewella, daytime events and more. But VEVO, the world’s
leading all-premium music video and entertainment platform, came to Austin
for another reason – the launch of its groundbreaking VEVO TV.
