Announcing Afropop's 2020 SXSW Lineup

After our first-ever showcase at South-by-Southwest 2019, Banning Eyre recalls hearing over and over: “You have to do this every year.” It seemed like good advice to us, so we're following last year's unforgettable show with an even larger lineup.

With artists from the Caribbean and spanning the continent, the lineup melds the pop and traditional, and that promises to keep you dancing right from 8 p.m. until the small hours of the morning.

Mark your calendar now: March 18, 8 p.m. at Takoba in Austin, TX.
