South By Southwest is the festival for cool new artists--and we've captured the best on camera! Watch part 1 of our internationally minded SXSW special, with A.A. Bondy, White Shoes & The Couples Company, Nicole Atkins, The Ting Tings.
White Shoes & The Couples Company
Windu & Defrina - Exclusive Performance
Putting Indonesia squarely on the musical map, WS&CC make groovy cocktail-pop for jetsetters across the globe. This performance was certainly worth the 48 hours it took them to get to SXSW.
Nicole Atkins
Neptune City
A.A. Bondy
American Hearts
White Shoes & The Couples Company
White Shoes & The Couples Company
The Ting Tings
Great DJ (Single)
The Ting Tings
Great DJ - Exclusive Performance
With the most funky-fresh sound to come out of Manchester since the Happy Mondays, and the best blonde-bombshell frontwoman since Debbie Harry, the Ting Tings are certainly next big things.
A.A. Bondy
Vice Rag - Exclusive Performance
He once fronted unsung '90s alt-rock noisemakers Verbena, but after moving to the country, AA Bondy amazingly reinvented himself as a Dylanesque troubadour. Now he won't remain unsung for long.
Nicole Atkins
The Way It Is - Exclusive Performance
With her gorgeously Lesley Gore-ish voice and an album that sounds like what Phil Spector produced in his prime, Nicole seems like a girl from bygone era. But she's definitely one to watch in 2008.
