Argentina worships its rock stars and puts a premium on music culture, which makes it no surprise that the Argentine delegation of artists arriving for SXSW 2019 are passionate and inventive. Casa Argentina is set up at 78 Rainey street but you can catch these artists all over Austin starting Monday.
Capsula
A swirl of Bowie, the Cramps and Sonic Youth, this trio has injected a psych-glam agent into a distorted garage host – and the fever is contagious.
Boom Boom Kid
The Iconoclast frontman from Fun People is off on his own and stirring up crowds with his Bono-like vocals and Perry Farrell antics.
Amor Elefante
Sensuality mixes with psych rock elements as this heavily female group pours their hearts into the music.
Tirman Kid
Inspired by the new wave of dream and psych pop artists, Tirman Kid rescues the sounds of the ’80s wtih reverberation and synthesizers.
Silvina Moreno
An excellent musician, composer, arranger and singer with a gifted voice and superb performance. Her music is a combination between pop and alternative sounds.
