About RedGorilla Music Fest
RedGorilla Music Fest is held in Austin, Texas, on March 12-15, 2008. Last
year, RedGorilla was an overwhelming success and made a name for itself as the
cool, rebel showcase that caters to its artists and promotes up-and-coming
independent music in all genres to help independent artists further their
careers.
Over 250 bands and solo artists will participate in shows in venues on 6th
Street in Austin. RedGorilla showcases will take place from Wednesday, March
12 to Saturday, March 15 in clubs that are right in the heart of all the
action. The event continues to be a "No Badge Required" event. It is free to
attend and is open to the general public.
RedGorilla Music Fest takes place during one of the most important music
weeks in the year. This is the music industry's premier destination for the
year, where thousands of fans and music industry professionals descend upon
Austin to network and check out new talent at the various music festivals
around town.
RedGorilla Music Fest offers showcase slots to bands and solo artists so that
they can take advantage of this excellent opportunity. RedGorilla Music Fest
is all about showcasing and making it the best experience possible for the
