They talked about Woody's status as legend of Oklahoma, influence in today's music, his soon-to-be-released lost novel written while traveling Route 66, and his incalculable impact as the voice of the American working man.</p> <div> <div>Frontpage Image: </div> <div> <div> <img width="634" height="355" alt="" src="http://sxsw.com/sites/sxsw.com/files/arlo_noraguthrie_rebeccahedges-lyon.jpg?1337810585"> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div>Frontpage Caption: </div> <div> <div> Photo of Arlo and Nora Guthrie courtesy of Rebecca Hedges-Lyon. </div> </div> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SXSWmusic/~4/vHOkDMMcZ_o" height="1" width="1"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sxswtodayinaustin/~4/rkrdTREkLkc" height="1" width="1"/>

The album hit stores Down Under in August of 2011 and quickly achieved platinum status in both New Zealand and Australia. Kimbra's introduction to the pop world has been eased considerably by her collaboration with Australia's <a href="http://gotye.com/">Gotye</a> on the international phenomenon, "<a href="http://vimeo.com/26028186">Somebody That I Used to Know</a>," topping the charts in eighteen countries, so far. </p><p> The U.S. version of <em>Vows</em> varies from the original in that five new songs have been added, the result of L.A. recording sessions with artists like Mark Foster of <a href="http://www.fosterthepeople.com/us/home">Foster the People</a>. ( Kimbra joins FTP for 27 tour dates beginning May 29th.) Still included, though, are three songs that have already been hits for Kimbra on the other side of the world: "Good Intent," "Cameo Lover," and "Settle Down," which she performed solo during one of her many stops during SXSW Week (watch it <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sd7GLvMYSHI">here</a>.)<br> <span>Photo of Kimbra during SXSW Week courtesy of Regina Visconi.</span></p> <div> <div>Frontpage Image: </div> <div> <div> <img width="634" height="355" alt="" src="http://sxsw.com/sites/sxsw.com/files/kimbra_hero.jpg?1337619763"> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div>Frontpage Caption: </div> <div> <div> Photo of Kimbra courtesy of Warner Brothers Records. </div> </div> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SXSWmusic/~4/SeVJEBm1ryo" height="1" width="1"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sxswtodayinaustin/~4/z4GzWL7EM_w" height="1" width="1"/>
