It’s almost South by Southwest time. The multi-day festival takes place every March in Austin, Texas and if you’re a die-hard music fan, you’ll have tons of opportunities to see big bands in small venues.

You also can discover a bunch of new favorites like I have the last two years. A lot of bands release new music around SXSW. I got to see Courtney Barnett a few days before her critically-acclaimed album Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit came out in 2015. I got to see British rockers Wolf Alice play a bunch of shows that year a few months before their album dropped.

You can do SXSW without spending hardly any money. When I went in 2015, I didn’t plan my trip in time to get an official wristband through the blog I wrote for at the time. Instead, I RSVP’d to all of the parties that were unofficial ones — many of which had free food and free beer. Keep this page bookmarked and check it periodically.
