SXSW 2021
Revisit SXSW 2021 highlights from Drug Store Romeos, Matilda Mann and more
New tracks from Olivia Dean, TV Priest and more are now available to stream!
SXSW 2021 may be over but, having taken place - like the rest of the world’s events - online this year, the on-screen treats keep coming.
As ever, the British Music Embassy made its voice heard at the festival, presenting a diverse roster of homegrown talents across the week of showcases including DIY faves Baby Queen, Do Nothing, Squid and more.
You can already watch highlights from those sets over at the official SXSW Youtube channel and now, if you’re still in need of some sofa-based new music fixes, DIY are hosting even more top picks from across the BME’s sets over on our own channel!
Ahead of debut album ‘The world within our bedrooms’, you can catch Drug Store Romeos perform ‘Frame of Reference’, while recent Hello 2021 headliner Matilda Mann’s ‘Paper Mache World’ and TV Priest’s ‘The Big Curve’ are also now available to watch.
