TheBlueIndian.com crew is making our inaugural trip to the land of milk and honey – SXSW 2013. Needless to say, we’re excited, and so we wanted to share with you a mere twenty-five of the hundreds of bands that we’re hoping to see over our time there, along with a video for each of their tunes. Compiled by staff writer Everett Verner and contributing writer David Dorer, this list will give you a glimpse of the party we plan on having. See you soon, Texas.
