The SXSW Music Festival<\/strong><\/a> is one of the largest annual music events in the world. Each year, over 1000 acts from all over the world converge on Austin in March to perform for an international audience of creatives, industry pros, and fans eager to get a sneak peek at the next generation of musical talent. With so many international and regional artists, not to mention many newer acts, it\u2019s impossible not to find something new to be excited about in our festival lineup if you are on the lookout. With that in mind, we are highlighting a selection of Australian artists performing at SXSW 2018<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Harriette Pilbeam, Hatchie<\/strong><\/a>, may be in the early days of her career, but her shoegaze pop singles \u201cTry\u201d and \u201cSure\u201d already have fans eagerly awaiting her debut LP. Newcastle\u2019s Vacations<\/strong><\/a> make sun-kissed jangle pop with just the right amount of lo-fi charm. Fans of post-punk will enjoy RVG<\/strong><\/a> for their retrospective guitar riffs and clever vocals. For something uptempo, check out Sydney\u2019s melodic punk rock outfit Bloods<\/strong><\/a> and 70\u2019s rock riffing sisters Stonefield<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Australia has no shortage of modern soul between Melbourne\u2019s soulful singer WILSN<\/strong><\/a>, who recently transplanted to Nashville, and The Teskey Brothers<\/strong><\/a>, whose take on the motown sound is getting bigger by the day. The country has produced many impressive electronic pop acts in recent years, and Sydney\u2019s Bad Pony<\/strong><\/a> look like they may be next in line to break out. Finally, don\u2019t miss out on Perth\u2019s singer-songwriter Stella Donnelly<\/strong><\/a>, who was recently awarded the Levi\u2019s Music Prize at BIGSOUND.<\/p>\n Still craving more artists to check out?
