Nathan Christ is a director from Austin, Texas, whose documentary Echotone focuses on Austin’s music scene during a turbulent year, all culminating at South by Southwest 2009. The film has already been screened in San Francisco, and will be released to mass audiences in the fall. I sat down with Nathan in East Austin to discuss his path to film, the documentary itself, and the future of music in Austin.
