One of the festival’s primary songwriters will be returning to the Lake Martin Songwriters Festival who has been there since its inception. 

Terri Jo Box first came to Lake Martin for a songwriters retreat at The Pace Place. She received an invitation at the last minute and arrived a day late. She spent her time playing and writing. While staying there, Box met the owners and heard about the future committee beginning the festival. She has been at the songwriters festival every year since.
