Second Play Stages feature Music Fest Artists

2010 marked the second year for SXSW Second Play Stages – early evening shows hosted by select SXSW hotels during the Music Festival.

Second Play Stages are sanctioned by SXSW and feature exclusively official SXSW 2011 showcasing artists playing a bonus show (in addition to their official SXSW Music Fest showcase). These stages will be free and open to all registrants and the public.

Past acts have included: Doll and The Kicks, Mumford and Sons, Guadalupe Plata, Polly Mackey & The Pleasure Principle, Dan Dyer, Johnny Flynn, Slow Club and Suzanna Choffel.
