Austin Access

The #1 Thing We Love About Austin:

Social acceptance is more versatile. You can be yourself and not be judged– it’s Austin; everyone’s weird in their special way!

How does your agency help Keep Austin Weird?

We believe the essence of keeping Austin weird is supporting our local businesses. Working with companies like Epicom, Tango Health, Onestar Foundation, AcademicWorks and RetailMeNot, that were founded in Austin, we are helping cultivate the strong and “weird” community that we all enjoy.

What are your most admired local brands?

Titos – For providing us quality vodka that doesn’t make us quiet as hungover; C3 – For giving us Austin City Limits Festival and other great shows; SXSW – For bringing the world of music, tech, film, comedy, gaming, and sports to our town; Alamo Drafthouse – For giving us booze, food, and excellently curated throwback films; Franklin’s – Even though we can’t have it for another month.

What are the top things your team will be doing at SXSW this year?

We will definitely be seeing our top 5 must-see speakers that we listed in our blog. We will be following twitter closely so that we’re in the know for secret showcases too.

During SXSW, what is the…

Hidden Gem: The Lose Control Hidden Party – Lose Control is the largest unofficial dance party that has been going on for 7 years now during SXSW. The event takes place every night during SXSW and the lineup is spontaneous. Lost Control takes electronic dance music to a new level, hosting DJs with an unreleased lineup, keeping fans on their toes about who may be coming to this party.

Most Overhyped: Spotify House – Although Spotify House presents some of the top artists of our time, the crowds they bring forth are almost not even worth the time spent. Not only does Spotify House introduce top performers, but they also host daily events such as SoulCycle rides and the PlayStation Music Arcade, allowing people to play games that are not released yet. If you have the patience, definitely go to Spotify House, but in our opinion, there is more events to attend to at SXSW that has everything Spotify House has to offer, but with a larger space and less crowds.

Which is your favorite Austin food truck?

Veracruz All Natural, Chi’lantro, La Barbecue Cuisine Texicana, East Side King, Micklethwait Craft Meats, Hey! You Gonna Eat or What?, The Peached Tortilla.
