Daya Rocks Radio Disney's First-Ever SXSW Showcase
The language used to describe the transition from childhood to adulthood is weird—there's usually some level of fixation on a loss of innocence, exuberance. No one has told this to the people who run Radio Disney, or if they have, it hasn't translated. The result is really captivating, a space for people to enjoy music regardless of age.
Let's backtrack a bit. On Friday afternoon (Mar. 18) at South By Southwest, Radio Disney hosted its first-ever SXSW showcase. It was an intimate affair with a few chosen industry professionals who share their love of young sounds and enthusiasm. The event took place at Lambert's BBQ downtown; the very strong scent of sauce and meat filled the room. Up-and-coming crooner Shawn Hook closed out the night, but it was Top 40 sensation Daya who truly captivated us.
