BreakThru Radio To Broadcast Exclusive Live Performance From Rockfour

BreakThru Radio (BTR), the Internet's source for the World's Best Independent Music, is continuing its special concert series with music recorded during last weekend's South by Southwest (SXSW) festival. On Monday, March 26, the station will be airing an exclusive live recording of the band Rockfour. Indie music fans can log onto http://www.breakthruradio.com and listen to this show, as well as other amazing performances from bands recorded during the festivities in Austin, Texas.

In April, Rockfour is set to release their fifth CD, entitled Memories of the Never-Happened. The Israeli indie rock group has been described as a "tightly knit mesh of guitar driven drums-bass-vocal-harmony that hints at Love, The Beatles [and The Byrds." The band's version of Pink Floyd's"Arnold Layne" recently won a Pink Floyd cover contest, which was judged by David Gilmour himself. A video of Rockfour's SXSW performance will also be available on the station's website as the featured video for next week.

This is the latest installment in BTR's special concert series, which began on Monday with an inspired set from The Hourly Radio and continues today with an exciting turn from indie band Jack.
"Rockfour blends a 60's rock era style from influences like Pink Floyd and mixes it with guitar riffs that can be linked to today's independent rock scene," says BTR's DJ Jeff K, who attended the Austin festival. "They perform an atmospheric show that captivates an audience for all ages, not just the classic rock minded music fans."

These performances were recorded at each band's request by members of the BTR team for future airing on the website. Other shows recorded during SXSW include electrifying showcases from talented bands such as Semi Precious Weapons, Illinois and The Pinker Tones. The concert series is a great opportunity for music fans to experience the bands they love, even if they were unable to make it to the actual show.

BTR's concert series isn't just limited to SXSW. In addition to the Jack show, the station will also premiere the second half of their live exclusive set from popular indie jam band Lotus recorded last month at the Bowery Ballroom. Listeners can check out each of these exciting performances from the live concert series in the BTR player by visiting http://www.breakthruradio.com.
