Austin’s 30th annual South By Southwest Music Festival kicked off on Tuesday (March 15) and although the massive celebration is still continuing, there’s so much that already went down.

Miguel
Miguel has been making great music for quite some time now. We also know that he and Rihanna seem to be greats pals. Recently he was spotted at the Spotify House during SXSW covering Rihanna’s hit song “Kiss it better” and it is adorable! Watch him as he occasionally looks at his phone to check the lyrics. We love you Miguel!
