M For Montreal Continues The SXSW Tradition In 2013 And Takes Off To Austin, Texas For The 7th Year In A Row!
Accompanied by a dozen Montreal bands, M for Montreal flies off this next March to one of the biggest and most renowned festivals in North America, South by Southwest. Commissioned by the government of Québec for the third consecutive year as Planet Québec's official curator of the music section, M for Montreal is proud to continue contributing to Québec's collective outreach through this platform combining music, film and multimedia.
"It's my pride and joy to see the Planet Québec initiative grow and improve since 2011 in line with the path set by M for Montreal since 2007 in SXSW's bustling cultural landscape" said Sébastien Nasra, president and founder of M for Montreal. "This year illustrates particularly well M for Montreal's mission to act as a catalyst and a rallying agent for Quebec's music industry as well as effectively contributing to the international visibility and foreign market growth of local artists" added Mr. Nasra.
M for Montreal travels to Austin for the 7th year in a row in collaboration with its high level partners to shine the spotlight on the cream of the crop of Québec's musicians, both francophone as well as anglophone. M for Montreal will present two official showcases in the fantastic Swan Dive venue, renamed as "Planet Québec" for the occasion. The first showcase will be co-presented with Arbutus and will begin with M's world-renowned poutine party, a proven international networking opportunity which is free and open to everyone. "M" is also thrilled to be collaborating with Tourisme Montréal for a second official showcase. Finally, another tradition is our daytime party in conjunction with the reputable and influential New York blog Brooklyn Vegan, showcasing bands together for the 4th consecutive year.
