As the first official showcase for the label, it’s an historic moment for Man Bites Dog Records, and so it's only right for the label to celebrate the moment by giving fans a night full of music that shows off the entirety of what Man Bites Dog Records brings to the table. "The strength of our line up is in the sound; all of these artist's their sound meshes so well with one another, its a fantastic playlist unfolding in front of you live," says label founder R.M.L. "And the showcase is a great opportunity to open our fans up to the new artists that we're starting to work with."

As an extra special treat, Man Bites Dog Records will give away a special SXSW Survival Kit to the first 200 fans that arrive at the venue. Not only does the SXSW Survival Kit come equipped with SXSW essentials like sun screen, beef jerky, and energy drinks, but the kit, which comes in a special Man Bites Dog DJ tote bag, also includes a number of limited edition, SXSW-only cassettes, including Eddie B & Harry Fraud's Horse Power EP, Hayze's The Smoker's Section mixtape, Curly Castro's FIDEL album, Wais P's PV$$Y RICH mixtape. Also included will be the cassette-only release of Copywrite's new LP, Carbon Copy Phony Art Pub Scam, which Copy will also be performing live at the showcase. "So many people spend so much money to take the pilgrimage to SXSW," says R.M.L., speaking on what inspired the Surival Kits.

The Background:

Passionate about music and with an ear for discovering great talent, RML formed Man Bites Dog Records in 2005 in Northern Virginia, a few short miles from Washington DC. In an area dominated by GoGo Music, it was the goal of MBDR to offer an avenue for local hip-hop talent. The label quickly grew beyond the confines of the local scene, however, as MBDR began to release project from the likes of Copywrite, Vast Aire, and others. Since then, it has been MBDR's goal to sign artists who create classic music - music that stands the test of time - in genres ranging from underground New York hip-hop to funky pop. Currently, MBDR's roster includes Killah Priest, Copywrite, Vast Aire, MHz Legacy, Jakki da Motamouth, Stu Bangas & Vanderslice, Esoteric, Wais P, Bronze Nazareth, Crimison Gods, Kount Fif, Empuls, Last Bison, Jason Rose, Brink, Red Mud, Sinista Daniro, Dom, Jay Notes, and The Swashbuckler.
