Riders Against the Storm closes out the EXNE stage at the Texas Music Museum, March 15, 2012
EXNE
Founded on the perception that SXSW did little to include the unique African-American music styles of East Austin, East By Northeast (EXNE) was a free mini-festival of legendary East Austin musical acts that took place on the parking lot behind the Texas Music Museum on East 11th. Attendees got to hear blues legends like the Texas Eastside Kings and gospel groups like the Bells of Joy.
