The British Music Embassy capped its 13th year at the festival with one of the strongest showcases yet. KCRW called it, “pure joy” and the Austin Chronicle said, “The showcase scratched an itch for cutting edge UK heaviness, but proved too effective because it rubbed the wound of us not being able to feel it in person.”

SXSW Online 2021 was the first-ever fully digital edition of the annual music, film, and technology conference and festival. More than 30,000 registrants from around the world experienced five days and nights of sessions, film festival premieres, and music showcases, which featured more than 200 international artists, including 70 of the United Kingdom’s best new emerging talents.
