Once again Vanyaland is teaming up with Berklee College of Music for the annual Boston & Beyond party at South-By-Southwest.

The party is presented by the Red Room at Cafe 939 and the Berklee Popular Music Institute and its student-run label Heavy Rotation Records, and open to SXSW badgeholders and the general public by RSVPing via Do617.
