Speakers Push Air, which comes a day after Audible Treats' fourth annual Official Hip-Hop Showcase, fits the SXSW mold well, delivering a strong line-up of indie acts from across the country. "In the past year Audible Treats has continued to build up our roster of diverse indie rock artists. We're proud to repesent such a strong group of bands and to showcase them during primetime at SXSW," stated Director of Marketing, Gavin Rhodes. The showcase is a joint endeavor between the Brooklyn-based marketing company and partner The Vinyl District with sponsorship from longtime showcase sponsor FLüD Watches, makers of unique and fresh watches. "We're delighted to be partnering with Audible Treats for this official showcase," says The Vinyl District Creative Director Jon Meyers. "All of the bands in the line-up have previously been — or are slated to be — featured on TVD embracing our fetish item of choice, vinyl, so it's a natural fit. We're looking forward to seeing many of these folks out in the daylight and away from their turntables."
