The deadline for international submissions to SXSW Music Fest 2008 is rapidly approaching. It’s this Friday, October 26th at midnight PDT as a matter of fact. (Domestic acts have until November 9th to apply.) In 2007 SXSW hosted over 400 bands from outside the USA in a range of genres from rock to hip-hop to electro and more. We’re always in search of the newest sounds from the furthest reaches of the earth, and Canada, so be sure to get your submissions in today to avoid missing out on what’s sure to be the largest gathering of musicians and music industry insiders from around the world in 2008.

There's two way to apply: Sonicbids and via the SXSW website. Either way is fine with us, we just want to hear what you've got.
