avatar for Spin Magazine's 35 Must-Hear Acts

From March 15-20, thousands of musicians, industry folk, media, and insatiable fans will descend on Austin, Texas, for South by Southwest, the annual music conference that showcases the bands bound to break out of obscurity in the coming year, and a few beloved veterans promoting their latest efforts. Since there's no way to see even a fraction of SXSW's 2,000 performers, SPIN editors have combed the extensive band listing to select this year's can't-miss acts. And whether you're going to Austin or not, you're bound to discover something new on this list. And to stay on top of everything SXSW-related, be sure to follow @SPINsxsw on Twitter, as well as our mothership Twitter handle, @SPINmagazine.
