Ty Herndon, Leigh Nash, Lari White and Chely Wright are among the musicians added to the 30A Songwriters Festival, which will take place Jan. 15-17 in South Walton County, Florida.
Cory Chisel, Cracker – Unplugged (David Lowery and Johnny Hickman), Robert Ellis, Robby Hecht, Levi Lowrey and Lilly Winwood have also joined the lineup.
Previously announced headliners are Jackson Browne, Grace Potter, and Shovels & Rope, as well as Wine, Women & Song featuring Matraca Berg, Suzy Bogguss and Gretchen Peters.
The 30A Songwriters Festival production team transforms amphitheaters, town halls, restaurants, theaters, bars and covered patios into unique music venues ranging in capacity from 75 to 400 indoors and 4,000 outdoors. Festival weekend passes are now available for $230 and can be purchased at the festival’s website, and locally in South Walton at the Cultural Arts Alliance office and at Central Square Records in Seaside.
This year, the 30A Songwriters Festival is teaming up with Folk Alley, a multi-media music service produced by NPR affiliate WKSU. Folk Alley will be on site throughout the weekend interviewing artists and filming and recording performances in a home studio on 30A. Edited 30A Songwriters Festival segments will be aired on Folk Alley’s syndicated NPR radio show and on their website and mobile app throughout the year.
As part of Southern Living‘s 50th Anniversary Celebration partnership, the magazine is sending a production team to the 30A Songwriters Festival to film interviews with musicians, which will be featured in their 50 Favorite Things About South Walton and Biscuits and Jam Series.
