It was an early morning in Austin when we caught up with Micachu and the Shapes singer Mica Levi. Maybe it's the hairdo, maybe it's the look of SXSW-induced exhaustion, but she looked like she'd just rolled out of bed. Micachu, as Levi is known, is classically trained and a student of composition, but you wouldn't know that from what you're about to see and hear.

Folge vom 29.04.2009Video: MirahLots of artists mix digital and acoustic sounds, but Mirah does it with remarkable control and grace. Her songs are never overly produced or overly sentimental. They're just a little dark, with something bubbling quietly beneath humming electronics and gently strummed guitars. See Mirah perform three new songs from her latest album, (A)spera, at the historic Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas.

Folge vom 28.04.2009Video: Jason Lytle and Rusty MillerThrough the '90s, until the group disbanded in 2006, Grandaddy built a loyal audience by making beautifully orchestrated, neo-psychedelic space-pop. Former frontman Jason Lytle returns this year with his debut solo album, 'Yours Truly, The Commuter.' He showcased some of his new songs for this NPR Music video session with Rusty Miller, recorded in Austin, TX as part of the South by Southwest festival and conference.

Folge vom 10.04.2009Neko Case (Middle Cyclone Tour)Emerging out of the sound of the spring peepers that close her new album, Middle Cyclone, Neko Case and her five-piece band opened the night's performance with "Maybe Sparrow." The stage was set in something out of a nature cartoon with trees painted on long banners and an owl overseeing it all. Behind them videos of cyclones, airplanes and anthropomorphic animals were projected on a screen. But the attention was clearly on Case, her stunning voice, as well as her solid backing band. She gave a full concert from Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club, which was webcast live on NPR.org.
