One of the most fun ways to get a peek into another person’s life is to experience their city like a local would -- with a homebase in a their space. LifeSwap takes the fun of living how a stranger does one step further. We’ve teamed up with AirBnB to give you a taste of what it’s like to step into someone else’s shoes. We can safely say that this is the best giveaway of any SXSW party around.
Liberation is both the modus operandi and main ingredient of the fearless five-man band Phony Ppl. Comprised of the cream of Brooklyn’s young musician crop, each member is a product of musical parents who gifted their children exposure to the greatest, from Mandrill to Bossa Nova, and, most importantly, wings for exploration and self-discovery. The result is a collective that is as limitless as its music; one that has received praise from the likes of Tyler The Creator and Childish Gambino, performed with Erykah Badu, Fetty Wap and The Roots, and killed festivals (Camp Flog Gnaw), late night television (Jimmy Kimmel) and their own residency at New York City’s legendary Blue Note.
Come thirsty and bring your funkiest dancing shoes. There will be an open bar for the first few hours of the show, killer live performances, and a community of amazing people ready to let loose.
This event is 21+ only and IDs will be checked at the door. Parking is limited, so we recommend public transportation or ride sharing.
Blues for Pops is an annual benefit concert celebrating life, love, and music for all of us who have lost a loved one or been affected by cancer. 100% of ticket sales are donated to the American Cancer Society and will go towards cancer research, patient services, early detection, treatment, and education.
Blues for Pops is an original jam written and performed by Jeffrey S. Walker, a skilled guitarist, music aficionado, and tech industry titan who lost his five year battle to cancer in 2009 at the young age of 59. His children keep him alive by celebrating his passions - among them loud music and stiff martinis.
In the words of JSW
Peace, Love, Inner Bliss

B4P 2019 is in loving memory of Corey Largman, a generous and loving father and husband, accomplished molecular biologist, and avid outdoorsman. He was tireless in his energy, but always had time to take an interest in friends and loved ones. Corey died after becoming lost during a backpacking trip in the Sierras in 2009.
Join us in commemorating the 10 year anniversary of both Corey and JSW.
