Louis Meyers, Co-Founder Of South By Southwest, Dead At 60

“In 1986, Meyers and [Ronald] Swenson were part of an Austin contingent that traveled to the New Music Seminar, a trip that planted the seeds for a New Music Seminar-sponsored convention in Austin the following spring. ‘When the seminar people backed off of doing an event, he and I were the ones who talked (Chronicle editor and publisher) Louis [Black]and Nick [Barbaro] into doing the thing,’ Swenson said.”
