"Limited visibility isn't failure—it's evidence of the systematic barriers we're breaking down. These 200+ episodes built the foundation for Rhythm & Rise Live."

Why This Work Matters

Every episode represents an artist who was told they didn't fit Austin's "brand." Every interview is with someone SXSW overlooked. Every show proves the talent exists—it just lacks visibility.

The Numbers Don't Lie:

Rhythm & Rise Live is the next evolution of this 10-year mission.
