Canadian Acts Elisapie, NOBRO, Zoon and More Get Added to SXSW 2024

The Austin, Texas music festival and industry meet-up is also bringing a handful of Canadian festivals to present showcases.

Austin’s South By Southwest Music (SXSW) Festival has announced its second wave of artists for 2024, featuring a stacked list of Canadian talent. Canadian artists slated to perform at the festival’s 38th edition include Inuk singer-songwriter Elisapie, Montreal punks NOBRO, indie pop trio Afternoon Bike Ride, Anishinaabe shoegaze specialist Zoon and more.

Elisapie's performance at the major industry festival — held in March every year — follows the release of her latest album, Inuktitut, in September. On Inuktitut, Elisapie covers ten pop and rock songs, translating classics like “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac and Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” into Inuktitut. She followed that up with a November cover of The Eurythmics’ “Love Is A Stranger.”
