The Austin Chronicle just came out with the "Field Guide to the 101 Essential Acts at SXSW". Since it doesn't look like NPR is putting out a list this will be the fallback. No way I can go through all of them so I'll again try to find the ones we have a chance to see. Their summary of this artist:
Petey doesn't enclose himself in a performer's image, music genre, or even a specific side of comedic TikTok. The multifaceted entertainer expands beyond the realms of indie-rock and electro-pop, ultimately forming his sound through blunt lyrics on mental health, relationships, and masculinity. By combining personal reflections with shouted words accompanied by distorted edits, the native Midwesterner creates a year-round playable vibe of relatability and transformative experiences
He now lives in L.A. and even got the New Yorker treatment. Our chance to see him is Wednesday at Mohawk

A really solid lineup.
"Lean Into Life" reminds me of LCD Soundsystem. The song below reminds me of Band of Horses. I really like what I've heard.
