Hwy 80 song writers fest

fifth annual festival - new venues - more workshops

the  hwy 80 songwriters  fest

The Hwy 80 Songwriters Fest traveled from the Alabama line to Jackson, Mississippi, starting in Demopolis, Alabama, which kicked off the event on 4th of July weekend.  Since the first fest in 2013, the goals and outcomes of this initiative were to expand the songwriter’s platform and territory, provide education in the songwriting craft for songwriters of all ages and levels of expertise, to build and support the creative economy in West Alabama and East Mississippi and to ignite the public’s understanding and appreciation for songwriters and their craft. Songwriter rounds in Mississippi/Alabama venues, the Grand Finale, the professional songwriting workshop and songwriting in the schools accomplished these goals. This initiative continued for five years and found tremendous success each year. 

Due to my returning to college to earn a degree in business, I was no longer able to facilitate this event.  Some photos below are from various Hwy 80 Songwriters Festival years. Enjoy!  Maybe it will return one year ...who knows?

" How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?  You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."  ​Matthew 7:4-5
