SXSW Watchlist: Califone
Chicago band Califone have been around the music game twice as long as most of the young start up bands you’ll be checking out during SXSW. They’ve been touring the world/country, releasing countless albums, and generally working their asses off since around 1997/98. Always adapting and changing their style, Califone have come a long long way since their beginnings over 10 years ago. Don’t even try to label these guys either, as their music changes stylistically so often that you can’t mark them in any specific genre. Needless to say, I’m pumped about waiting in line for these guys. Prior to their arrival in Austin, we had the opportunity to send lead singer Tim Rutili some SXSW questions. Follow the jump for the questions.
