Solstice Presents:

THE NORTH GATE SHOWCASE

at Carousel Lounge

Amidst the waves of musicians and fans who flood the streets of SXSW every year, it is common to lose oneself to the transcendent quality of one of the largest and most influential music events in America. This year, as the music week pushes into its final weekend, Solstice Live is teaming up with The Carousel Lounge to present THE NORTH GATE SHOWCASE, a premium independent TX artist showcase located on the north edge of this year's SXSW festival, providing a solid space to grab some cold beers, rally for the next expedition, and continue checking out some talented local Texas bands.
