Handstands, Moscow Mules & Dave Le'aupepe - Our Final SXSW Wrap-up

SXSW might be over but the Aussie legends that made the treck over to Austin, Texas are still pumped from the wonders of the festival.

Check out what Bad Pony and Gordi got up to while they were in the USA below.

day 1

"Moments before completing a wildly successful handstand on 7th St."

"Secretly Group Showcase at Barracuda. No handstands. A Place To Bury Strangers breaking the decibel limit in the room next door.

day 2

"Kicking off Friday with Glenn Dickie’s specialty brekky rolls for the BIGSOUND brunch at Australia House. The Sounds Australia crew are by far the hardest working people at SXSW. An incredible job putting on these shows."

"35 degrees, Alex’s vintage sax nearly melted."

"Back at The Blackheart for Warp Magazine. Babs the harmonium had had a couple Moscow Mules by this point."

day 3

"Dave from Gang Of Youths gettin' the face did for Amazon Music."

"Final show - Babs the harmonium hitting the Whole Foods rooftop for Quantum Collective’s Southwest Invasion show."

"SXSW. Done."

"First thing’s first. The Aussie BBQ was legitimately the best day of my life so far. It was absolutely off the hook, so much incredible Aussie music, so many snags stuffed in my glutinous gob, delicious frothies and all my best pals to boogie on down with. Here are my personal highlights from the day."

"We were lucky enough to catch The Money War guys earlier in the week purely by chance as we wandered around town with our eyes bulging out of our heads trying to absorb all the cool music and both times they were absolutely flawless. Even after just seeing them once previously we already felt nostalgic about their tunes."

"Ruby Boots left me absolutely floored. You know those times when an artist makes you do a really dumb amazed face because they’ve blown you away? Ruby Boots will do this to you, guaranteed."
