Boston to Austin

Is there a better way to celebrate the up-and-coming talent of the Boston music scene at SXSW than with a rowdy party on St. Patrick's Day? Probably not, so swing by the roof of The 512 for the musical stylings of Bostonian favorites Viva Viva, The Dirty Dishes, Bodega Girls, Mystery Roar, Mean Creek, Kingsley Flood, Static of the Gods, Banditas, Endless Wave and DJ Die Young. Shoegaze, deep disco, fuzzy guitars, post-Americana, sharp spinning, electronic tendencies, soaring voices: It's all there in the lineup, and Converse and DigBoston.com are bringing it from Boston to Austin.
