One month from now, South by Southwest unleashes Music week. As of this morning, that now incorporates indie favorite Japanese Breakfast, Nigerian pop breakout Mr Eazi, and Puerto Rican nylon-string guitar wizard José Feliciano, who thus becomes the festival’s most iconic instrumentalist.
Japanese Breakfast’s spousal duo Michelle Zauner & Peter Bradley playing at Fader Fort during SXSW 2019.
Also added to the expanding roster are Portland garage favorites the Shivas, Bay Area rapper Nef the Pharaoh, soft vocal stylist Col3trane, songwriter’s songwriter David Dondero, industrial goth rock go-to drummer Martin Atkins, and 99 Neighbors, a young DIY hip-hop/rock cooperative from Burlington, Vt.
In its eighth artist list, SXSW music week extends to amass global talent. Welcome Israeli singer Noga Erez, Monterrey DJ Nurrydog, South African art-rockers Blk Jks, and Canadian-born/California-based lyrical beast Dax.
Austin punk trio Borzoi, meanwhile, sticks to its origin story about Melbourne, Australia. Other hometown picks highlighting today’s list include Sweet Spirit, Sun June, Grupo Fantasma, and Bright Light Social Hour. There’s also B1, Bragglights, Clemente Castillo, the Deer, DJ Hella Yella, Godjknowledge & the Trendsetters, Grupo Fantasma, Kydd Jones, the Lagoons, Miluna, Pale Dian, Reue, Sertified, DieSlo, Single Lash, Spirit Ghost, and Wet Dip.
