SXSW Music Interview With Astro Singer Andrés Nusser

One of the best parts of SXSW Music is getting to see bands that come to Austin from distant parts of the world, some of which are visiting the U.S. for the first time. This year, the Santiago, Chile based band Astro made the trek way north to share their musical blend of synthesizer fueled-psychedelic-alternative rock with audiences in the U.S.

Astro, who recently signed with the L.A. based label Nacional Records,  played a couple of different showcases at SXSW, including a daytime set at the Austin Convention Center.  I ran into lead singer Andrés Nusser during the Torreblanca and Amigas show and asked him his thoughts about SXSW and Texas.

Check out our video with Andrés, where he talks about Astro’s latest release, his experiences at SXSW, and his first impressions of Texas and the U.S.
