Free song downloads are sweet, but 140 of them is a hell of a lot sweeter. Thanks to Spinner, you can grab yourself a free three-part MP3 download of more than 140 tracks from bands that will be at this year's South by Southwest music festival. And because the deadline has passed to register for the event, it will have to do in place of getting there yourself.
Some standouts include a dance-heavy soul track from Eli "Paperboy" Reed & the True Loves, the Raveonettes (headlining the local Middle of the Map fest this year), a pop number from the Joy Formidable (coming to the Riot Room on April 23), one of my personal favorite numbers from indie-folk god John Vanderslice, and the single "Vocal Chords" from indie-pop nutballs Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. (playing with Tapes 'n Tapes at the Jackpot Music Hall on March 4).
Check the playlist and nab the download here. South by Southwest goes down in Austin, March 11-20.
