Humanities Project: Folk Musician Savannah King Performs at CCC on Nov. 14

Savannah King

Savannah King lives for the song in the journey. A fast moving, adventure seeking life on the road in her 1987 Ford Coachman camper van provides just the inspiration. The road brings the stories, and the music showcases the insight only experience can provide. By honing her live sound, King brings her alternative folk sound at its very best to every performance.  

In addition to headlining her own shows, King has opened the show for many artists such as Emmylou Harris, 10,000 Maniacs, Harpeth Rising, Sera Cahoone, Field Report, and award-winning Canadian country music singer-songwriter Ryan Cook. King has also performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.

King has released three EP’s of all original music: Throwing Stones (2010), She Sends Her Love (2012), and The Acoustic Collection (2013).  By 2014, King had formed her first band, Savannah & The Kings with Mark Bamann (lead guitar), Loren Metzger (drums) and Scott Gergelis (bass).  Their first full-length studio album, "Bold & Unsteady", was released in April 2015.  

King will be performing on the Coffeyville Community College campus on Tuesday, November 14. The public is invited to the 10:30 a.m. Tuesday humanities performances at CCC.  The performances are free and held in the Spencer/Rounds Performing Arts Theatre.
