We would like to extend a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who came out to our party during SXSW we hosted with The Wild Honey Pie on Friday 3/15. It was… AMAZING! We’d like to send a big internet hug to all of the bands who all played incredible sets, The Eastern Sea, Doe Paoro, You Won’t, Conveyor, Pearl and the Beard, The Last Bison, High Highs, Widowspeak,  Mikhael Paskalev, ON AN ON, Little Tybee, Pree, Eli Mardock and Frances Cone… we love all of you!

And more loving thanks to our incredible sponsors who helped us put this practically perfect party together: KOHLER, Superglued, Applauze App and Mailchimp (those monkey hats were adorable) and the best venue in Austin, Uncorked Wine Tasting Bar!

Finally, a gigantic sloppy kiss to all of you who packed our party to the brim.  We loved talking with you, drinking with you and watching wonderful music with you. Let’s do it again next year!

Check out a few snaps over at our Facebook page HERE and if you have any photo’s to add, please send them to sxsw@papergardenrecords.com.

The CMJ Music Marathon has come to a close for another year, and as we symptomatically withdraw from nine Conveyor shows, 3 Pree shows, 2 showcases and a lot of free alcohol, we rejoice and reflect on our most successful CMJ to date *Happy Sigh*.

Let us brag… so did you see Conveyor in The New York Times, not once but thrice!? Jon Pareles took an early liking to the band with his opening article ‘CMJ: A Promising Start‘ setting the stage for praise upon praise from some of our favorite outlets such as Nylon, Bonnaroo, Grooveshark, Prefix Magazine, QRO Magazine, Verbicide and a ton more. They made two more appearances in the times, firstly on Mr Pareles’ CMJ Spotify Playlist and secondly with a couple of snaps taken at their Fontana’s Showcase!

Noisey /Vice snapped Eli Mardock and Natureboy at our Tuesday showcase, Pree made their way onto the NPR CMJ Playlist and The City and Horses made a lasting impression on the Life of Lito.

While we may have provided the music, our lovely sponsors are to thank for turning the party-knotch up to 11 with free beer flowing from Speakeasy Beers, free wine from HobNob, and of course 4 bicycles given away thanks to Schwinn!

Oh, and you know even though CMJ is over, our engines are still running and there is plenty more chances coming up to see our bands in NYC and beyond. Here’s a few excuses to see us again..

10/25 Little Tybee w/ Poor Moon @ 529 Earl. Get your tickets here: http://www.okproductions.net/events.html
11/1 Conveyor w/ Freelance Whales @ Webster Hall. Get your tickets here: http://www.bowerypresents.com/event/149793/
11/3 Team Genius w/ The City and Horses @ Pianos. Details TBA.
11/3 Conveyor w/ Freelance Whales @ Paradise City Rock Club. Get your tickets here: http://www.thedise.com/

Paper Garden darlings Pree are set to play at the upcoming Hillstock Festival on June 23rd for the block party at 106 Emerson Place, Brooklyn, NY. The evening is sure to be awesome with other bands including Il Abanico, Life Size Maps and Osekre & The Lucky Bastards.

This is the third annual Hillstock Festival to take place right in our backyard! The same backyard that has played host to many events including Multiverse Playground Fest and the VIP party for Little Tybee on their last tour.

The festival that spans three days and four parties will also play host to Math the Band, Ava Luna and Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt among many, many others.

Check out this video from last year’s Hillstock Festival by Earcandy:

See the Hillstock Facebook page here to keep updated and see the full lineup.
