Following its first-wave announcement in early November, the 2013 SXSW Music and Media Conference has just announced its second wave of bands scheduled to perform during the festival’s March 12–17 time frame. Among the vast mix of local and international acts slated to participate, visitors can expect to see San Francisco’s Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, Providence’s The Dear Hunter and London’s Polly Scattergood.
This second wave of bands will bump the current lineup to over 800 acts so far. Also expected to hit the stage are York’s Ed Kowalczyk, Houston’s Fat Tony and New York’s Foxygen. The folks at SXSW are careful to caution all announcements are subject to change, as some acts, for one reason or another, may drop out as we tick closer to the March show dates—so be sure to keep checking in for further updates. Below is the festival’s second-wave roster as it presently stands.
SXSW 2013 takes place Tuesday, March 12 – Sunday, March 17, 2013 in Austin, Texas.
