    I was lucky to be a part of SXSW in Austin in 2018, and I saw first-hand the electric atmosphere of innovation that the festival creates. From helping to shape the future of tech and AI, to providing a platform for major new artists, SXSW London is a significant opportunity to generate new ideas, promote our capital and help inspire the next generation. This week the creative eyes of the world will be on London as our capital becomes the first European city to ever host SXSW.

Established and rising musicians make up an eclectic roster of live performances. Talking to Metro, festival CEO Max Alexander described this year's event as a 'love letter to London '.

Famed for its eclectic mix of music acts, film showcases, A-list appearances, and industry networking, SXSW makes its way from Austin, Texas, to the Capital for a feast of innovative talks, live performances, and film premieres until Saturday.

One of my favourite pieces of 00s indie trivia is the lead singer of stellastarr*, Shawn Christensen, went on to win an Oscar for his short film in 2013. My Coco is an all time fave, btw.

My son has recently discovered Danny Go and it’s honestly banger after banger. Best New Music on Toddler Pitchfork, easily.
