'Troubeliever Fest' With Musicians Rodney Crowell And Anna Wilson

JamBase

With roots steeped in Nashville’s songwriting tradition, TrouBeliever Fest founders Monty Powell and Anna Wilson say they had a deep desire to create a festival where the songs themselves would be the stars. The 1st Annual Troubeliever Festival is happening at Snowbasin on August 3 & 4 featuring Americana legends Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell.

Today on Access Utah we’ll talk with Rodney Crowell about his latest album “Acoustic Classics” and hear some of his music. In the second half today we’ll talk with Anna Wilson about Troubeliever Fest and hear some of her music and some music from her new band Troubadour 77.
