South By Southwest has its final band addition grouping of 2011, and we are starting to get some really solid names listed. Among those included: Metric, Stars, The Big Pink, The War On Drugs, Bleached, The Magnetic Fields, Talib Kweli, Built To Spill, Beach Fossils, PAPA, Screaming Females, Hospitality, and many more.

We have the latest list of adds below, and you can check out a full list of SXSW participants here. Remember, the biggest acts don’t get announced until the weeks before the event, so everything will be much crazier come March 13th-18th.
