Just got what’s touted as “The Official Magazine Of The South By Southwest Conferences & Festivals” Preview issue & there are ads, articles, and promos that mention a lot of bands. By no means a “list,” but there are a few I was unaware of.
Here’s a few of what I see mentioned in this magazine. Some of these may have already been listed here before, so forgive me if I’m repeating too much info for you.

Hope that helps.
yessss that list is awesome. super excited to see viva voce on there…
Quite a few UK artists in that mix, from what I’ve seen so far they’re much better represented than in 2006.
i don’t think Dr. Dog is going to be there. According to their tour dates, they’re going to be in the Northwest during the Southwest.
it would be good if this was true- very excited to see Hadouken | The Sunshine Underground | KBC | Shit Disco | Good Shoes and Rumble Strips | Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. personally I want to o to sxsw to see bands too small to tour the us.
