The 18th Annual Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival is just around the corner, and if you haven’t yet signed up, now is the time. NSAI has announced a limited-time special offer through its Facebook page at www.facebook.com/NSAIofficial. The promotion is available for two days only (9 a.m. CT Friday, March 26, through 9 a.m. CT Sunday, March 28).

Starting on Tuesday, March 30 and running through Saturday, April 3, the NSAI-produced festival is billed as “the world’s largest all-songwriter festival.” More than 300 songwriters from a variety of genres will perform over 70 shows at venues including The Bluebird Café, Douglas Corner, Edgehill Studios, the Hard Rock Café, the Listening Room, the Rutledge, the Station Inn and 3rd & Lindsley. Over 9,000 music fans attended the event last year. 

Among this year’s featured headliners are Louisiana’s Marc Broussard, ‘60s hitmakers Ides Of March (“Vehicle”), country stars Trace Adkins and Steel Magnolia and Nashville favorite Jeffrey Steele.

Festival Fast Access Passes allow fans to attend any and all shows throughout the five-day event and are available here. Pass holders enter festival venues first, while single show attendees are required to wait for available space.

Shows begin at 6 PM and 9 PM Tuesday through Thursday; 6:30 PM and 9:30 PM Friday and Saturday. Click here to check out the full lineup. Schedule is subject to change. For up-to-the-minute news, follow www.twitter.com/NSAIofficial.
