The SXSW® Music and Media Conference aims to educate and inspire musicians and those who work with them. Whether you're a grizzled music biz vet, or a wide-eyed newbie, you'll find great discussions and unique opportunities to meet people who can help advance your ambitions. The 2013 dates for the Music Conference are March 12 - 16.
The SXSW PanelPicker is the source for a large portion of SXSW Music sessions. The PanelPicker submission process for 2013 is now closed, but the voting opens August 13 - 31. For a taste of what's offered at the conference, check out highlights from past SXSW speakers at the official SXSW YouTube Channel.
