For its second year, Music at the Intersection will see more than 50 acts converge on Grand Center, with neo-soul singer Erykah Badu and blues-rock guitarist Gary Clark Jr. topping the bill.

St. Louis’ premier festival of soul, jazz, blues, hip-hop, rock and everything in between will also feature performances from Hiatus Kaiyote, Kamasi Washington, Buddy Guy and Robert Glasper, as well as a slew of St. Louis-based acts including the Urge, Foxing, NandoSTL and more.

The festival will take place across four outdoor stages in the Grand Center Arts District on September 10 and 11. Tickets range from $69 for a day pass to $129 for the full weekend, with VIP options that can go as high as $650. They’ll be available via MetroTix beginning at 10 a.m. March 11.

“An attendee may buy a ticket with a favorite like Erykah Badu, Buddy Guy or the Urge in mind, but that ticket gets them access to an incredible, dynamic urban music experience — and we hope they explore it all,” Chris Hansen, executive director of Kranzberg Arts Foundation, says in a statement.
