About this Event
For the Sake of the Song is a celebration, a showcase, a gathering of Austin songwriters. It's an excuse to get together, to create community, to center our lives on Song, on sharing, on story. It's a South Austin City Limits for Songwriters. A dream evening for songwriter/host Matthew Payne. There will be two back-to-back Songwriters-in-the-Round performances.
For this Fall gathering, songwriters include Anna Larson, Strange Bands, Alex C. Mills, Taylor Kron, Rulitos, and Keith Davis. Each of these songwriters represents the magic of our city, the magic of Song. They are each vital parts of the greater Austin songwriting community, a community which stretches back in a long tradition. They are the voices of our city, in our bars, our coffeeshops, our clubs, our galleries, our house concerts, jams, and song circles. They are each believers in the power of song to transform lives, to sow community, and have been transformed by song themselves.
We look to the words of Townes Van Zandt to coin our gathering, and will undoubtedly feel full hearts and inspired when the evenin is over, singing "for the sake of the song."
