The inaugural board of directors for The Americana Music Association Foundation (AMAF) includes RhiannonGiddens, brandicarlile and more.
The Foundation will work with ethnomusicologists to preserve music cultures including those from the rural South, the Texas-Mexico border, Native American songs of the Pacific Northwest and fiddling music of Maine.
The Foundation will include the Thriving Roots Institute, an initiative which brings together artists and educators to address historical precedents, milestones and pathways for artists in the future. In some ways, Hilly sees the Foundation as the realization of the AMA’s founding council in 1999. “[This] is the true manifestation of what [they] intended 20 years ago,” he says. “To highlight artists we love [and] educate and promote understanding from where our traditions came from—where Americana came from.”
