The Music Tectonics and Rock Paper Scissors team has pulled together an impressive list of official and unofficial music industry and music industry and music tech events happening next week in Austin during SXSW.

There is so much going on in Austin every March that it’s hard to find where movers and shakers gather. Many of the best events aren’t even on the official SXSW schedule, so this guide includes off-site summits, unofficial bar-backroom meetups, theme houses, rooftop happy hours, and key official events.
