Sponsors

The parties will feature free beer courtesy of Sapporo USA (while supplies last).

The renowned amplifier manufacturer Orange Amplification is sponsoring all three days. In addition to giving SXSW-goers the opportunity to demo Orange gear at our parties, Orange will donate $1 to Little Kids Rock every time someone posts to Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #OrangeGives (limited to one entry per person/social media identity). You don’t need to be at SXSW to participate, but bonus points if you post a photo or video of a band getting loud with Orange gear along with the hashtag #OrangeGives.

The #OrangeGives campaign benefitting Little Kids Rock will kick off Wednesday, March 12 at 11 AM CST and ends Sunday, March 16 at 11:59 PM CST.

What’s more, everyone who includes the #OrangeGives hashtag along with a photo or video showing Orange-whether on stage at SXSW, in their home studio, or with bands rocking out at a local club-will be entered into a drawing to win a premium Orange OR15 Amp Head.

Little Kids Rock is a national nonprofit that transforms children’s lives by restoring and revitalizing music education in under-served public schools. More info at www.littlekidsrock.org.

Drowned in Sound, Britain’s best music website, is our U.K. media partner on the events.

Other sponsors include MailChimp (more than 5 million people use MailChimp to create, send, and track email newsletters), and the record labels ANTI- and Polyvinyl.

The parties will happen from 12-6 PM at the Flamingo Cantina at 6th and Red River (515 E. 6th Street, Austin, TX 78701). This is the ninth year in a row that Under the Radar has hosted events at SXSW.
