Singer-songwriters take center stage at weekend music festival

Getting ready for 2022 Wire & Wood Music Festival

The free festival is in Alpharetta this weekend. We talked to festival organizers to find out what attendees can expect.

ALPHARETTA, Ga. - If you’ve been watching the new FOX hit "Monarch," you know the stories behind the songs can be very dramatic! So, is songwriting always that full of angst? There’s no better place to find out than at a festival full of singer-songwriters happening this weekend in Alpharetta!

We’re talking about the 2022 Wire & Wood Alpharetta Music Festival, which features a packed lineup of more than 30 singer-songwriters from both here in Georgia and beyond. The idea of the popular festival is to take audience members behind the music, allowing the performers to not only sing their song, but also tell the stories of what inspired the music. 

Performances will happen on outdoor stages set up in Downtown Alpharetta from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. on both Friday and Saturday, and various venues in the city will also feature performances both days starting as early as Noon.
