Jan 26, 2021 SXSW By Joey Arnone

SXSW (aka South by Southwest), the annual music, film, and interactive conference/festival in Austin, Texas, has just announced the first round of artists to perform during the music portion of the festival, which is going to be held virtually this year as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The lineup includes acts such as A Place to Bury Strangers, Braids, Holy Fuck, Indigo Sparke, Say Sue Me, Sorry, Squid, TV Priest, and Virginia Wing. SXSW Music 2021 will be held on March 16-20, with artists performing remotely in venues in their home countries. The full list of performers is below.

Last year, SXSW was cancelled by the city of Austin as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was one of the first major events to be cancelled because of the coronavirus.
