Colorado is set to take over Austin in a month. As we announced last week, this year's Colorado Music Party will feature over 120 bands. Today, we know more about the lineup — it includes Denver's Rubedo, The Yawpers, Wheelchair Sports Camp, Kitty Crimes, Inner Oceans, Sound of Cerces and SPELLS as well as the New York based band Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds, California's the Stone Foxes and the Austin-based band Residual Kid. The showcase, which requires no official badge and is organized by the Fort Collins non-profit SpokesBUZZ, Colorado Creative Industries and the Colorado Tourism Office, will be a five day affair, from March 17 to 21, during the music portion of SXSW.

The lineup represents a diverse range of music from all over Colorado. Genres range from hip-hop to folk to rock to Latin, with plenty more in between. The lineup is below (it will change slightly before the actual event), and the specific schedule will be announced at a later date.
