The first-annual Savannah Stopover gives bands a new destination on the U.S. circuit

Savannah, Georgia may be more well-known for its BBQ, but students attending the Savannah College of Art and Design have helped redefine the Southern city as an artistic hub. In response to its burgeoning local music scene, earlier this year Savannah hosted dozens of bands for a three-day music fest leading up to SXSW.
Savannah Stopover, as it’s called, brought us down too and in this video we check in with groups from Brooklyn (
Das Racist and Class Actress) as well as
The Shaniqua Brown, who hail from Charleston, SC, to learn about life on the road.
