@keeganmcinroemusic, a long-time fixture of the North Texas music scene, often finds himself at festivals across the country and around the world.

Recently he wondered: Why doesn’t Fort Worth, a city with a rich tradition of singer-songwriters, have some sort of event celebrating its heritage while showcasing the next generation of talent?

“It’s got such a rich history for musicians, but in particular, songwriters,” McInroe said during a recent conversation. “So many people, not just in the past, but also in the present — I just thought it was kind of strange Fort Worth didn’t have [a songwriting festival].”

With help from the community and a team of collaborators (including @afallonproductions, @hearfortworth and @amplify817), that gap has been addressed, with the launch of the inaugural Fort Worth Songwriter Festival, which kicked off Nov. 7 and continues through Nov. 10 at multiple venues throughout the city.
