I touched down in Austin for SXSW late Tuesday night as the music festival was kicking off, so I needed to quickly get to my hotel and check in, then head out to get my badge before closing time. I managed to get my credentials right before 10pm and then I went straight to Lustre Pearl for the Twitter showcase, which happened to be one of the best showcases I saw all week.
There were only three acts on the bill but they all put on some great performances one after the other. I was already familiar with Joey Purp’s live set and he sure didn’t disappoint, but it was also great to see DUCKWRTH and Lion Babe command and impress their respective crowds. Check out some photos of all three acts below.
