Kick Butt Coffee Has the Ticket for Music During South by Southwest

Austin, TX, March 12, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Think all of this week’s music action during South by Southwest is happening in downtown Austin? Think again.

During SXSW, Kick Butt Coffee in North Austin is hosting more than a dozen musical acts. Admission is free. Kick Butt Coffee is not an official SXSW venue, but hopes to become one in 2009. Kick Butt Coffee is at 5775 Airport Blvd. in the Highland Commons shopping center.

“For coffee drinkers and music fans not wanting to brave the SXSW crowds in downtown Austin, Kick Butt Coffee is offering a stage for a variety of acts to perform this week,” says Thomas Gohring, founder and owner of Kick Butt Coffee.

“Even when SXSW is not going on, Kick Butt Coffee is a premier place in Austin for musicians to perform and fans to listen music. Music fans and coffee lovers alike can grab a Kick Butt beverage, grab a chair and enjoy the tunes.”

Acts interested in performing at Kick Butt Coffee should contact mastergohring@kickbuttcoffee.com. For more information, visit http://kickbuttcoffee.com/swsw-south-by-southwest.htm.
