ACL 2017: Jamila Woods

Sunday at 1:30pm in the tent.  More soul/R&B out of Chicago.  Her first album was ranked 36th best of 2016 by Pitchfork.  A Brown University graduate, she has collaborated with Chance the Rapper and is also an accomplished poet.

The fifth option in this slot is Tucker Beathard, a pop-country singer.  I'll spare you having to listen to him.

"Way Up" is a good song. Sad but Pitchfork describes it well: "protest music that sounds like a children’s playground".

Holy
