UPDATE: The British Music Embassy announced the full lineup for the week – full lineup after the jump!
The British Music Embassy is back for its 5th year at SXSW – again occupying Latitude 30 as the only nation at SXSW with its own dedicated venue. They’re bringing over 60 bands with them, stretching performances out over the week to make sure the Yanks this side of the pond don’t forget where their country came from. Acts like Django Django, Maverick Sabre, Benjamin Francis Leftwich, Jonquil, Ben Howard, Slow Club, Twin Atlantic, and Clock Opera promise to make this anniversary one to remember!
Details and full lineup for the week after the jump; it’s a good one!
March 12th – 17th at Latitude 30, 512 San Jacinto Blvd. Austin, TX 78701
