Emmy Award-winning music television show, JBTV, has announced the official lineup and schedule for their 2011 installment of SXCHI, sponsored by Threadless. The 3-day, Chicago-focused concert series takes place Wednesday, March 16 through Friday, March 18 at The Trophy Room, 310 E. 6th Street, in downtown Austin, Texas.
Coinciding with the 25th Anniversary of the SXSW Music and Media Conference, the free concert series, presented by JBTV and sponsored by Threadless, will showcase 40 top Chicago artists performing over three days and nights in the heart of downtown Austin.
JBTV cameras will be filming inside The Trophy Room for a special, 60-minute SXCHI episode to air on NBC Chicago Nonstop (Chicago Digital Channel 5.2) and WJYS (Chicago Channel 62). Threadless, the popular community-based t-shirt company, will also be producing episodes of Threadless Tee-V from the venue.
While SXCHI is not a registered South by Southwest showcase, JBTV has elected to keep the event free (no SXSW festival badge required for entry), open to the public and restricted to ages 21+.
