Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway Win at 2024 International Folk Music Awards: Full Winners List
Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway won at the 2024 International Folk Music Awards. Tracy Chapman received a lifetime achievement award.
Alynda Segarra of Hurray for the Riff Raff received The People’s Voice Award, which is presented to an individual who “unabashedly embraces social and political commentary in their creative work and public careers.” In a sad sign of the times, a moment of silence was observed at the outset of the evening to acknowledge the shooting that happened across the street at last week’s Super Bowl victory celebration event in Kansas City. Folk Alliance International interim director Jennifer Roe announced from the stage that next year’s conference will take place Feb. 19-23, 2025, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada at the Queens Elizabeth Hotel, where John Lennon and Yoko Ono recorded “Give Peace a Chance.”
