Podcast #20: SXSW 2011 Pregame Show

MusicFilmWeb: See It Loud

Tweet

All sonic and cinematic roads lead to Austin this week as the 25^th anniversary edition of South by Southwest gets underway Friday. As the MusicFilmWeb team prepares to hit the Texas capital for a smorgasbord of music, movies, breakfast tacos, and Lone Star beer, we’re talking SXSW music docs on See It Loud.

First up, Andy Markowitz talks to South by Southwest film fest producer Janet Pierson about how she and her team went about assembling this year’s slate of more than 20 feature length music films, ranging in subject from Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp to Texas fiddlers and English vinyl obsessives. Then Andy, Dave Watson, and Warren Cohen pick some of their most anticipated screenings and preview the SXSW panel discussion Heard but Not Seen: Capturing Music History Cinematically.

This podcast containes a couple of coarse words. Opening theme by Los Musicos de Jose provided by Mevio’s Music Alley.
