Once upon a time, South By Southwest was a small festival where unsigned indie bands could get noticed by a major label. Now, it’s grown to something of epic proportions featuring music, film, and technology. But if you head to the right bar at the right time, you might just see an artist you’ve never heard of blow your mind. That’s why Sound Opinions host and WBEZ blogger Jim DeRogatis is there. He tells us if he’s had one of those “magic moments” so far at the festival’s 2015 edition. Flickr/Geoff Livingston)
