Music at the Intersection is returning for its third year in September. The festival’s lineup includes more than 50 artists, including homegrown talent, rapper and singer Smino, two-time Grammy-winning jazz, funk and hip-hop fusion artist Thundercat, as well as music icons Herbie Hancock, Taj Mahal and Angela Winbush.
Chris Hansen, executive director of the Kranzberg Arts Foundation, joined Tuesday’s St. Louis on the Air to discuss this year’s lineup. He also talked about the festival's special tribute to the 50th anniversary of hip-hop and how it will pay homage to the musical genres that originated and were fostered in the Gateway City and surrounding Mississippi River cities.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. April 14.
