The 18th annual AmericanaFest: The Americana Music Festival & Conference will take place September 12-17, 2017, gathering thousands of artists, fans, and industry professionals from all over the world in Nashville.

The annual event brings together fans and music industry professionals alike, offering six days of celebration through seminars, panels and networking opportunities by day and raw, intimate showcases each night.

This year’s lineup includes another remarkable mix of Americana performers — many of whom have appeared in our pages. A few quick picks:

Robyn Hitchcock
Elizabeth Cook
Steelism
Lilly Hiatt
Aaron Lee Tasjan

and many, many more. Check out the 2017 AmericanaFest lineup here.

Thanks to the generous folks behind the fest, we’ll be handing a lucky East Nashvillian reader a pair of wristbands, which’ll get you into all six nights of performances at any of the official showcase venues.

Enter through this form; we’ll choose and announce a winner on Monday, September 11.
