Celebrate the release of Benjamin Wagner’s tenth studio album, Constellations, at his second annual Essential Festival featuring Lily McKown and Chvnce. Proceeds benefit Sound Mind Live.
BENJAMIN WAGNER:
The NYC transplant performs songs from his brand-new, tenth studio album, Constellations.
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.
CHVNCE:
The Wilmington band blends lush, electronic rock and psychedelic influences into rich, understated pop.
LILY MCKOWN:
The Philadelphia singer/songwriter’s delivers unvarnished folk rock as somber as it is smart.
The Crown at The Queen AGES: All Ages DOORS: 7:00 PM Following the latest CDC guidelines, masks are recommended to be worn while attending events at the Queen. All support acts are subject to change without notice.
