Mar 12, 2013 By Laura Studarus Girls Names

On March 15 Under the Radar will host the third of three free SXSW day parties. Leading up to the event we’re letting you know about each artist playing. Today we’re spotlighting Girls Names. In a previous post we gave you the basic party details of the party: The party happens from 12:00-6:00 PM at the Flamingo Cantina at 6th and Red River (515 E. 6th Street, Austin, TX 78701). All events are free and open to the public—no RSVPs or badges are required. Come early for free beer courtesy of Sapporo. SHURE and MailChimp are also sponsoring the event. Polyvinyl is also sponsoring the day.

Belfast quartet Girls Names makes dark jangle pop with a 1980s flair. Perfect for those mid-afternoon dance breaks. Check out our thoughts on the band’s sophomore album here, or get to know them via a few select tracks below. Girls Names takes the stage Friday, March 15 at 4:05 PM.
