SXSW Sydney have added just over a dozen more acts to this year’s list of confirmed artists, with the running total now at 150 with six weeks to go.
You can also see the list on the official website and, as it stands, Australian & New Zealand artists make up the bulk of the confirmed acts so far (as you’d expect – US acts are usually confirmed first at the Austin event), with another hefty chunk coming from across Asia (again, as you’d expect given the location). In total, we’re expecting around double this number at the final count, so there’s still a lot more to come!
As part of the latest update though, SXSW have also removed the country classifications from the artists on their site – if you want to filter the artists list by country then you can use the tool I built below. That’ll also tell you how many Spotify followers they have and give you a link to their profile.
If it’s not showing nicely for you, you can use these standalone versions for desktop or for mobile.
(Also, there may be more artists in the dashboard below than mentioned in the post above. If so, it’s because new artists have been added since the post was published. The dashboard is right more often than the post!)
