The Deep Ellum show boasts the best female artists in every type of genre.
Sarah Johnson knows Dallas can be one of the greatest musical cities in the world. That is why the North Texas singer-songwriter founded Girls of DFW, a collaborative, all-genre, festival-like concert presenting some of the region’s best female musicians.
The gathering is set to be a massive one with 13 performing artists: four headliners taking part in the onstage round and nine special guests who will perform two songs each sequentially. The headliners include Jenna Clark, Bayleigh Cheek, La Bell and Johnson herself; special guests include Sarah Carrino, Honin, Billie Jo Joe, Gabby Minton, Simone Nicole, Penny & Dime, MIN, Jordan Monroe and Lina Mapes.
Making the event’s main focus the inspiration and meaning behind the artists’ personal works could have alienated some more private songwriters, but Johnson says the reception has been nothing but one of open acceptance. “We're our own harshest critic, right?” Johnson says. “Even when we're talking about like with songwriting, I mean, it's a very vulnerable place to put your diary out there for the world or your heartbreak or your love or whatever it is for everyone to hear. So, I do think that to feel any kind of reciprocation of love or support or [people] showing up to listen and not talk during the songs what really keeps artists going.
