SXSWfm: Indie/Pop/Rock – Jun 10

Middle Biscuit is a weekly SXSWfm specialty radio show stream, hosted by Elizabeth Spruiell on MixCloud, which focuses on indie/pop/rock music gems (about an hour long).

SXSWfm_biggerSXSWfm is the official internet radio stream of the South by Southwest (SXSW) Music Festival which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in Austin, Texas from March 15-20, 2016. This is a great way to discover new music.

This is how Elizabeth describes her weekly show every Thursday at 12 & 6 CT.

What is the Middle Biscuit? Literally speaking, it is the warm, highly-coveted, center, perfect biscuit my brothers and I fought over when our Mom set down a pan of her homemade fare. Figuratively, the middle biscuit is a symbol representing any thing that is elite compared to those that surround it. Tune in weekly to feast on what I consider middle biscuit tracks and middle biscuit artists from the massive universe of indie-pop-rock. Mostly new stuff, sometimes classic, either way, you’ll get your fill.

SXSWfm: New 2015 Posts

SXSWfm_bigger

SXSWfm is the official internet radio stream of the South by Southwest (SXSW) Music Festival which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in Austin, Texas from March 15-20, 2016. This is a great way to discover new music.

I had been publishing SXSWfm music posts weekly featuring Indie/Pop/Rock, Americana, and Electronica music available on SoundCloud for about six months prior to the 2015 SXSW Music Festival.  I just discovered that they actually have continued these weekly specialty shows on MixCloud since April, so I will be catching up on those which I missed, and then create new posts weekly for you to enjoy this music all year.

The show This Week @ SXSW is currently on hiatus. This SXSW Music Festival Weekly Update will resume in January 2016 on Thursdays at 7pm CT, and SXSWfm will catch you up on the insane amount of artists the Music Fest team will add to the lineup every week. Check back later and get to the know the music of SXSW 2016!
