HGTV is teaming up with Paste for the entertainment site's ninth annual party in Austin, Texas, during the South by Southwest(R) (SXSW(R)) Music and Media Conference. The party, "Stages on Sixth," is expanding to four days this year - March 13-16 - features 44 bands and is being held at one of 6th Street's biggest music venues, The Stage on Sixth, at 508 E. 6th Street, from noon to 6 p.m., each day.

This year's line-up includes some of the festival's most exciting veteran performers including Billy Bragg, Buddy Miller & Jim Lauderdale, Josh Ritter and The Zombies, as well as newcomers like Foxygen, The Lone Bellow and GUARDS.

Newcomer CR Smith, a music director from Billings, Mont., is also playing "Stages on Sixth" as part of his grand prize package as the winner of HGTV and Paste's "Be The New Sound of HGTV Contest." Last year, the brands partnered together to find an original song for HGTV's on-air House Hunters International marketing and promotional campaign. Smith's "This Way Home" was chosen by Paste's editors and HGTV's producers, and is regularly featured on HGTV.

A full schedule for each stage will be posted at PasteMagazine.com and via Paste's Twitter and Facebook pages. Fans can also RSVP for free downloads and schedule news at www.pastemagazine.com/rsvp.
