Nikon Inc. and Warner Music Group have just unveiled details of their upcoming South by Southwest® Music & Media Conference (SXSW®) in Austin, Texas. “The Warner Sound Captured by Nikon” will make its home at Austin’s famed La Zona Rosa, with two days and three nights of stellar showcase performances slated for March 13th through 15th. Artists from Atlantic Records, Warner Bros. Records and other WMG labels will be appearing live at these official SXSW showcases; all SXSW badge-holders are welcome and a limited supply of tickets will be sold at the door.
“SXSW is one of the best festivals in the world for discovering new music. This year, all of the Warner Music Group labels have teamed up to present an incredible residency at La Zona Rosa, showing the breadth of all of our rosters – rock, urban, and electronic. We have partnered with Nikon on the event and will be streaming the performances so that fans around the world can share in the live experience.” said Elyse Rogers, Senior Vice President, Global Touring and Artist Development, Warner Music Group.
“Nikon has a rich history as the brand choice for music photographers who desire incredible speed and image quality in low light. With the launch of our new D4 and D800 HD-SLR cameras, which offer outstanding video capabilities, we’re excited to join with Warner Music Group to bring this year’s SXSW musical performances to audiences in rich broadcast quality video online.” said Lisa Baxt, Senior Communications Manager, Nikon Inc.
