Speaking of Erykah Badu, it seems the Queen finally has some local musicians to keep her company down in Austin next year when she performs at the annual cluster-you-know-what that is South by Southwest.

Denton’s Bowling for Soup, Dallas’ own The Secret Handshake and Austin’s Dallas ex-pats in The Strange Boys have all been added to the bill. See the entire list of new adds here.
