Magic Hat Goes Well w/ Miike Snow

Swedish band Miike Snow is hitting SXSW next week. If you haven't heard of them (yes, them. Seems those Swedes are tricky when it comes to names), check 'em out now, for their catchy piano and soft sung lyrics will have you tapping something in no time. In Austin in March, the land of the pre- and after-party, they'll fit right in. Filter Magazine's Showdown at Cedar Street promises to be one kick-ass time, especially since the randy Swedes will be rocking next to the likes of Dr. Dog, Minus the Bear and many more. Check out the party at 208 W. 4th St., Wednesday-Friday. Fans encouraged to throw back a Magic Hat while there. We hear it's good in Texas.
