For the fourth consecutive year, Jeff Biederman and Jordan Bromley are hosting Manatt's annual South by Southwest showcase on Thursday, March 17 on the Blind Pig Roofdeck in the center of the festival, from noon to 6 p.m.

Last year's event attracted over 1,000 industry professionals and music fans, and was touted as one of the best showcases of South by Southwest. This year promises a similar result, with co-sponsors such as Miles Davis Properties, LLC, Randy Jackson's Dream Merchant 21 Entertainment label, and the John Lee Hooker Family Limited Partnership.

As with every year, five talented acts will perform, and beer and tacos will be served.
