The SXSW® Music and Media Conference is back for its 27th year. Our reputation as the biggest and most anticipated convergence of all things music is being kept alive by our continued effort to offer compelling daytime programming and stellar nighttime showcases.

2013 Showcasing Band Foxygen
Here it is, the next wave of bands scheduled to perform at the 2013 Music Festival and it's a big one. Take a look below to glimpse even more of the insane amount of talent you can see at the upcoming event. It's very exciting, but don't forget to breathe!

The SXSW Music Conference is hard at work finalizing its 2013 programming, and is pleased to announce 32 more sessions for SXSW 2013. Check them out below in alphabetical order.
This is far from an exhaustive list of the many panels, talks, and events you'll see at SXSW Music (see all announced panels here), and we'll continue to announce more programming in the coming weeks.
These panels and talks run the gamut from exploring new revenue streams, band/brand collaborations, crowdfunding, policy and international issues, and much much more. If you want to explore the future of the music industry with us, be sure to register for SXSW.
