Be sure to catch Liz Cooper & The Stampede, Okey Dokey, The Vegabonds, The Medium, Lilly Hiatt, Escondido, and Becca Mancari among many others next month down in Savannah. of Montreal, Nikki Lane, and Wild Child top the bill. Weekend passes are still available, starting at $79 for all three days and $34 for single day passes! Get excited! And for now, enjoy the festival playlist below!

For Becca Mancari, making music is a showcase of humanity. It's evident in her songs the effort to convey who she is, through her confident and evocative alto. Through music retaining the twang Nashville is renown for, Mancari informs all of her songwriting with her life experiences, specifically those that involve her travels—she’s lived everywhere from Staten Island to Zimbabwe. She’ll be playing a show with Bermuda Triangle and Liz Cooper at the Basement East on July 12th. - Lilly Milman, photograph by Zachary Gray
