SXSW Music Line-Up

I talked about South by Southwest a few posts ago. Since the festival is only a couple of weeks away I need to figure out which bands I plan on seeing. There are over 1400 bands scheduled so it has been a task trying to narrow it down.

But I think I have narrowed it down to a select few:

• The Akron Family
• The Black Angels
• Black Mountain
• The Blow
• Billy Bragg
• The Cave Singers
• The Concretes
• Dolly Parton
• Islands
  
• Jens Lekman
• The Kills
• Thurston Moore
• My Morning Jacket
• Shout Out Louds
• Sons & Daughters
• Takka Takka
• Tapes n’ Tapes
• Vancougar
• The Von Bondies
• The Watson Twins
• Yo La Tango

Well I most definitely know I will be catching My Morning Jacket and Yo La Tango because they are doing a set together which will be insane! And I believe that Billy Bragg and Islands will be part of Anti-Label showcase, as well as the Kills will be part of the Domino showcase. So those are a definite three I will be checking out, but don’t know what to do about the others. If you have seen any of these other bands let me know if they were any good or not. Also if there are any other bands you think are worth checking out let me know.

Cheers!
