The Weekend Showcase 3.09 edition is our longest playlist of ever – not including our year-end Mega, Mega Playlist of course. This week, we have 55 excellent songs for your listening pleasure. The scary thing is that we could have easily shared another 50 songs. This is further evidence regarding how much the indie music scene is flourishing, and just in time for SXSW. So if you need a playlist for the long haul to Austin, we have the answer.
Like SXSW, the playlist reflects the wealth of talent across the globe. Seventeen countries are represented on the Weekend Showcase, including: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, England, Germany, Iceland, Kenya, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, the United States, and Wales.
The playlist and tracklisting, as usual, follows the list of articles from the past week.
