Savannah Stopover Genre Guide 2022

By Lauren Ball

THE 2022 iteration of Savannah Stopover is near! This year, the festival skips the bar-crawling street party in favor of a two-day shindig at the Georgia State Railroad Museum. That means less pressure for choreographing the perfect Stopover experience (remember sprinting from El Rocko to Club One?), which gives you more time to fully soak in the sounds you want to hear. And here, we've done the legwork of sorting the sounds for you. Behold: the all-inclusive Genre Guide.
