The Heart of Texas Quadruple Bypass Music Festival features the best in unsigned talent that Austin and the surrounding southwest region have to offer, as well as some of the best indie artists from across America and beyond. Launched in March 2000, the first Heart of Texas Quadruple Bypass Music Festival started humbly with one venue and sixteen bands in downtown Austin. Now in its 11th year, the 2010 Texas Rock Fest will boast hundreds of indie acts on four downtown outdoor stages. Motivated by the desire to support and promote the best yet-to-be discovered talent rising from the burgeoning Texas alternative rock scene, the event is strategically scheduled to coincide with Austin's annual South bySouthwest (SXSW) Interactive Media, Film and Music Festival.
Over 23,000 entertainment professionals are expected to attend the ten days of interactive multi media, film, and music events, conferences, and trade shows in Austin. The 11th annual Heart of Texas Quadruple Bypass provides one more good excuse for music industry executives and cutting edge in/die bands to come to Austin in March.
