americana music festival

Some of Americana's brightest stars and most talented vocalists teamed up to honor Aretha Franklin with a rendition of "Chain of Fools" during the 2018 Americana Honors & Awards ceremony.

The explosion of music out of FAME Studios in the '60s, '70s and beyond was, in some senses, a cultural snapshot of the day, with many of the hits produced doubling as anthems for the women's rights movement, the civil rights movement and other causes.

Cauthen assembled an all-star crew -- including some surprise guests -- for his Big Velvet Revue at AmericanaFest 2018.

The Milk Carton Kids kicked off the 2018 Americana Honors & Awards Ceremony with a satirical examination of the music.

Brandi Carlile, Margo Price, Dave Cobb, Jason Isbell, Amanda Shires and John Prine joined Amazon Music's 'Today in Music' panel during the 2018 AmericanaFest.

Isbell admitted his three victories left him "conflicted" and sparked a conversation about diversity at the awards show.

What an incredible evening!

The Boot will be livestreaming Lucca's Live at the Local songwriters' showcase from AmericanaFest 2018 on Sept. 12.
