It’s been too long since I posted a podcast, so this is Step 1 in catching up. This fourth edition of the Buzzsicle features songs from 17 L.A. artists whose names I heard in the aftermath of last month’s South by Southwest Music Festival. In my Austin wanderings, I mostly avoided L.A. bands, figuring I could always see them at home, but during the inevitable schmoozing of the festival I asked friends, fans and random people who they’d seen and who made an impression. Tracklist follows the jump.
