Wallis Bird Still Hasn’t Recovered From An Amazing SXSW
Wallis Bird updated fans on her blog at MySpace (@wallisbird) on Saturday (March 28), talking about her record deal with Rubyworks, winning a Meteor Award, and taking part in SXSW in Austin, Texas. The Irish singer songwriter tells readers:
South By South West: Was fuuuuuuuuuuu**in amaaaaaaaazing! Really, this is where I run out of words. It was such a head trip of a festival. 24hrs of constant music, where everyone is singing for dear life, in every single bar lined up consecutively on 3 parallel streets. Mental. M.e.n.t.a.l. I spent some time with my good friend Victoria Smith and the wonderful Lorna Smith and her gorgeous family, the band One Day International, talked to countless amounts of good people, got married to Gavin Glass in a beer garden on my first night and have bruises across my back from mosh-pits and jet-lag to boot! Ha! Thank you so so so much to Matt for driving me and Aidan to the hotel at 8 in the morning before we cught our flight. You Rock man x x x Turns out I had plenty to say about it after all. Mental! Thank you to Bjoern, Ann, Moritz and everyone at Reeperbahn Festival for making it possible, it was fantastic of you, let’s do it again tomorrow! x x x
I met Gavin Glass at SXSW… he was crying his eyes out into a gin and tonic, saying you divorced him?
