Whitefish Songwriter Festival Returns To Montana For Sixth Year

/by

The 6th Annual Whitefish Songwriter Festival is set to take place Sept. 18–20 in Whitefish, Montana.

Quartz Hill Music Group is the event’s presenting sponsor, and songwriters Marla Cannon-Goodman, Aaron Rattiere, Frank Meyers, Paul Jenkins, Adam Hambrick and more will light up the stages around Whitefish during the annual event. Label artists Spencer Hatcher, Lakelin Lemmings and Gabe Walsh will also join the festival this year.

“I’ve always believed in the power of a song – as well as in both the joy and in the healing that music can bring,” says Benny Brown, Quartz Hill Music Group founder. “I’m excited to partner with the Whitefish Songwriter Festival because it’s a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the talented songwriters who create those special moments with a new audience that truly values great music and how it all begins. ”

The all-ages event has something for everyone and works in conjunction with the Whitefish Chamber of Commerce to offer educational elements throughout the event. Several of the artists/songwriters will visit local schools and encourage the art of songwriting with the local students. The festival is also unveiling more opportunities for music education and cultivating aspiring artists with a songwriter workshop and songwriting contest. Each year, the festival transforms Whitefish into a destination for music lovers, hosting acclaimed songwriters performing throughout downtown, supporting working artists while enriching the cultural life of the community and generating significant local economic activity.

“The Whitefish Songwriter Festival is built on the power of great songs and the connections they create,” says Cari Klepper, festival producer and founder. “Having Quartz Hill Music Group as our presenting sponsor allows us to expand opportunities for songwriters while bringing even more world-class music to our community.”
