congratulations (SXSW)

4.3

Celebrate with Congratulations (OFFICIAL) at Low Down Lounge, where the UK's hottest art-rock band unleashes their dizzying hall of mirrors party! Devils and tarts lock horns in a whirlwind of taut guitars, caustic electronics, huge fuzz bass, and booming grooves—think garage, synth-pop, and post-punk fused into kinetic anthems of love and self-discovery.

Leah in green, Jamie in blue, Greg's red flash, and James in yellow are here to move you with raw energy and electrifying live shows. Signed to Bella Union, their debut album Join Hands drops February 13th, backed by BBC Radio 1, 6Music, Iggy Pop, and more. This official event promises badges, wristbands, priority access, and non-stop vibes at Austin's retro East Side gem!

Raw, punchy melodies and infectious hooks
Experimental sounds that erupt in cacophony
Live music magic with a devoted fanbase
