The South By Southwest Music Festival is a time to make the rounds and discover new artists and sounds you may have yet to be exposed to before coming to Austin for the week-long musical happenings. It can be easy to get intimidated when glancing at the hundreds of performing artists. That is understandable for out of town music fans, so we’re bringing you seven more buzz bands to catch while you roam the streets of Austin in the coming weeks. All performing artists and set times can be found on the SXSW website or the SXSW GO smartphone application.

Today’s SXSW preview of five buzz bands to see during SXSW was written by Christina DeStefano. Perhaps despite that fact, she chose acts to highlight that all of us here at The Cosmic Clash enjoy like Yard Act and Sesami who we have already covered previously. Others are new to us too and we’re excited to check them out during the festival. To locate day parties you might see these bands, check out our list of Sx show posters with links or head to my Do512 calendar.
