Iowa City Songwriters Festival

Ahead of the Jan. 16 release of Valentine, Courtney Marie Andrew’s first new album since 2022’s Loose Future, the acclaimed Arizona singer-songwriter mapped out her journey so far, including duets with John Prine and an early 20s stint in Jimmy Eat World.

Jeff Tweedy headlined the first-ever Iowa City Songwriters Festival this year. He spoke with IPR's Cece Mitchell about imposter syndrome, his legacy and the ambitious triple album he's releasing this Friday, Twilight Override.

The first ever Iowa City Songwriters Festival was all about celebrating the art of songwriting, and for both songwriters and music lovers, it was a success.

The first-ever Iowa City Songwriters Festival will be an opportunity of a lifetime for songwriters of all experience levels and those who simply appreciate a great song.
