Saturday, Jan. 3, we presented our annual signature Free Week showcase at Stubb’s. This year we focused on young Latinos doing big things in indie rock, a genre more and more young bi-cultural Latino musicians will play in the future. To prove this theory, we curated a lineup that included young bands from not only Austin but also El Paso, San Antonio and Monterrey, Mexico. Those in attendance, whether they were Latino or not, loved what they heard.
The list of performers from beginning to end included Gus Goose (Monterrey), Femina-X (San Antonio), Migrant Kids (Austin) and Avindale (El Paso).
