Park City Song Summit has announced a lineup for its innovative mix of musical events, featuring headliners Gary Clark Jr., Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Mavis Staples, Tank and the Bangas, and many more. The multi-format musical experience will take place September 8th–12th at 15 venues across Park City, UT, sized from 75 to 1,300 people.
The first-of-its-kind event seeks to close the gap between songwriters and audiences. Rather than musicians playing at audiences, many Park City Song Summit performances will take place in the round to small crowds. Other events will also see a mix of stripped-down performances with artists discussing the craft of songwriting in events called “Song Summit Lab” conversations.
Park City Song Summit will include musical performance and Lab conversations with Adia Victoria, Amanda Shires, Andrew Bird & Jimbo Mathus, Cedric Burnside, Celisse, Devon Gilfillian, Fred Armisen, Iron & Wine, John Craigie, John Doe, Jonathan Russell (The Head And The Heart), Jonathan Wilson, Josh Ritter, Joy Oladokun, Langhorne Slim, Leslie Jordan, Lori McKenna, Lucius, Morgan Kibby, Natalie Hemby, and Tré Burt.
