SXSW Releases Music Schedule

So far, hundreds of bands have been announced to play South by Southwest this upcoming March, and while you may not have heard of most of them (yet), there are a slew of big names heading to Austin, Texas in a few months.

Bruce Springsteen will deliver a keynote speech, and Alabama Shakes, Built to Spill, The Magnetic Fields, Talib Kweli, Against Me!, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, The War on Drugs, Best Coast, M. Ward, Youth Lagoon, and Tennis are set to play a show or two during their time at the festival.

Other bands included in the festival line-up are Cloud Nothings, of Montreal, ASAP Rocky, Dan Deacon, The Drums, Bear In Heaven, Deerhoof, Dragonette, Lana Del Rey, The Ting Tings, YACHT, Band of Skulls, White Rabbits, Freelance Whales, Ezra Furman, Miniature Tigers, SBTRKT and Sharon Van Etten.

Despite previously committing to the festival, the Polyphonic Spree have pulled their name from the bill.
