Upcoming: Sound of the Xity 2015

Annual music industry mashup Sound of the Xity returns for its 2015 edition from April 28th-May 3rd. The \”international music industry expo & festival\” will be held at various venues across town, showcasing a variety of local acts alongside a handful of international names, including artists from the UK, Israel, Korea, Spain, Austria, and more. A heck ton of conferences and workshops as well. It’s really all quite massive – with shows happening simultaneously, in the afternoon, over the holiday – pretty much, any show you attend this week is likely going to fall under the Sound of the Xity. They’re not messing around. You can download the entire schedule here or pop on below to see what’s going down when and where.
