Benjamin Wagner’s Essential Festival

Celebrate the release of Benjamin Wagner’s tenth studio album, Constellations, at his second annual Essential Festival featuring Lily McKown and Chvnce.

The NYC transplant performs will perform his brand-new, tenth studio album, Constellations, in its entirety.

Recorded at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, the nine-song collection traces an arc of grace, redemption, and transformation: night fades, the sun rises, and we find our way through a song.

Hewn from acoustic guitars, overdriven amplifiers, soaring harmonies, and plaintive keyboards, these nine songs lean heavily into the Southern Songwriting Tradition: road trips, railroad tracks, and the star-strewn Nashville skyline.

Local heroes Lily McKown and Chvnce round out the bill. Proceeds will benefit Sound Mind Live.
