As SXSW quickly approaches, we're now in that window of time in which the music lineup will likely be growing daily.

Wrapping this week's new additions are JoJo, Ab-Soul and Warpaint, all three of whom showed up on the festival's roster as of Friday morning.

For JoJo, it is particularly interesting, as the 23-year-old singer only last month signed with Atlantic Records after a multi-year battle with former label Blackground Music. Her last album was 2006's The High Road. And given Atlantic's place under the Warner Music umbrella, it's extremely likely we'll see JoJo at the annual Warner Sound Showcase, which typically spotlights artists with Warner connections.

On Thursday, Chance the Rapper and Chet Faker were confirmed to play the Austin festival, while Tyler, the Creator announced his own presence there on Monday night.
