Americana Music Association
We’re proud to announce Brandy Clark and Allison Russell as our 2024 Americana Artist-in-Residence at NYU Steinhardt. Throughout 2024 Spring academic semester, they will be working closely with NYU students through a series of lectures, workshops and classroom visits. In their role, the award-winning songwriters, singers, and multi-instrumentalists will present, curate, and moderate a variety of discussions, workshops, classroom visits, and performances.
This isn’t the first time we’ve partnered with NYU Steinhardt
Clark and Russell are the third and fourth Americana artists to participate in the NYU Artist-in-Residence after Rosanne Cash in 2021-22 and Taj Mahal in 2023. Our Foundation and NYU are building on this collaboration to educate students on the origins, history, and cultural impact of Americana music.
In addition to the annual NYU/Americana Artist-in-Residence, we’re also working with NYU Steinhardt on curriculum development and more educational initiatives.
Our non-profit 501(c)(3) foundation was established in 2020 with an ongoing mission to preserve and educate people on the beloved art form we know today as Americana music. If you’d like to find out more and contribute to our cause, click the button below.
