Shit. I might have to skip SXSW this year and save my money for a trip to Tennessee. In just it's second year, the people at Big Ears have curated an incredible lineup of singular, highly expressive artists for this years festival in Knoxville. The group is not large, but, you get to see them perform in gorgeous, intimate, and PROPER settings. With a heavy dose of bedroom community/802, and ambient dub-step performers there promises to be much in the way of collaboration and live experimentation.
