Like the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Glastonbury Festival, preparing for the SXSW Festival in Austin, Texas is a year round event.
The 2025 event is March 7-15.
The SXSW Festival is known for giving artists a big boost. They have just announced the first round of performances for 2025. Mexican singer Justin Morales, the Dublin punk band Gurriers, the Indonesian psychedelic fun band Ali, Montreal’s art-punk band La Securite, multi-instrumentalist Yasmin Williams, Aussie rockers Delivery, Japanese legend Shiho Yabuki, and the wave pop band Twin Shadow offer a wide diversity of cultures and musical styles. SUSS will be a part of the Nanocluster collaboration.
