Providence sound session

Providence Sound Session is a "genre-defying" music festival held every July in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. It was established in 2004 by Providence Black Repertory Company artistic director, Donald King and Cliff Wood, then director of The City of Providence Department of Art, Culture, and Tourism.

The festival, a collaboration between non-profit and local government institutions, was originally held over the course of three days at Waterplace Park, Westminster Street and The Xxodus Café at Black Rep. It is now a week long and includes nineteen participating venues in and around Downtown Providence.
