[Tonight, Mar 21] Sol Life Launch: Official Sxsw Showcase

Sacramento-based center dedicated to art, culture and activism - Sol Collective (www.solcollective.org) - continues to spark evolution and movement at SXSW in Austin, TX with the launch of Sol Life, a musically progressive, co-operative record label and artist development model. "Sol Life represents a bold reimagining of not only the traditional arts-based non-profit model but also the recording industry model - both experiencing major shifts - and the fertile ground prime for transnational recultivation." GET IN THE MIX & JOIN US as we present #SolLifeMusic artists and some very special invited guests for this showcase! ►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►► Saturday, March 21st @ Speakeasy 412 N.
