Less than a year ago singer/songwriter Maggie Rogers told GRAMMY.com that her perfect quiet night had become "room service and 'The West Wing.'" This fall, however, will be anything but quiet for her. She'll be headlining the All Things Go 2018 Fall Classic that runs Oct. 6–7 at Union Market in Washington, D.C., leading an all-female lineup she curated herself.
The festival's Saturday lineup, in addition to a performance by Rogers, will also include Alma, Billie Eilish, Kaye, Ravyn Lenae, LPX, Oshun, and Jessie Reyez. The Sunday schedule features BØRNS and Carly Rae Jepsen headlining along with the Aces, Betty Who, Cautious Clay, Footsxcoles, Snny, and Two Feet.
Gender equality at music festivals has been an urgent topic this year, and it was certainly on Rogers' mind as she curated the festival's lineup.
"Almost a year ago, [we] dreamed of creating a more diverse music festival culture that celebrates the artistry, individuality and vision of our peers," Rogers said in a statement. "Amplifying the voices of female and non-binary artists is the first step towards permanently changing a culture that for so long has under-represented these essential members of the global artistic community. I'm so proud to be a part of All Things Go and to share a stage with these artists I so deeply believe in."
In another nod to gender equality, All Things Go — now in its fifth year — will partner with the Women's March and their voter registration and advocacy initiative Power to the Polls.
Tickets will be available starting May 23 via the All Things Go 2018 Fall Classic website.
