The 30A Songwriters Festival has also once again teamed up with NPR’s Folk Alley, a multi-media music service produced by WKSU. Folk Alley will be on site throughout the weekend producing sessions, interviewing artists and filming and recording performances in a home studio on 30A. The in-studio sessions are aired on the syndicated Folk Alley Radio Show.
A variety of festival weekend passes are available now starting at $255 and can be purchased at 30asongwritersfestival.
