When I touch down in Austin for what has become my annual pilgrimage to SXSW. I really cannot wait for the live music showcases and film previews to begin. As always, there is a vast choice of music acts to see. Even though I’ve picked out a schedule in readiness, there is always the likely chance it will get amended when I get wind of something exciting which might have dipped beneath mine and most other people’s radars. As soon as I realised Bleachers<\/strong> were down for performing as a part of Rachael Ray’s Feedback party<\/strong>. No brainer. I had to be there. A lot of people didn’t know about this show, so if you were paying attention to all of the other parties happening around SXSW, you were lucky to see this show!<\/p>\n

I can say this about my first Bleachers gig. The die-hard Jack Antonoff<\/strong> fans turned up in force ready to eat up a small selection of the band’s hits and most loved songs. They journeyed us through “Strange Desire<\/strong>” singles, “Shadow,” “I Wanna Get Better”<\/strong> and “You’re Still A Mystery<\/strong>.” Picking out “Let’s Get Married<\/strong>” and “Don’t Take The Money”<\/strong> from sophomore album “Gone Now<\/strong>.” All of which you will hear in my live footage below.<\/p>\n
