It would be difficult to imagine movies without music so it's little wonder that the biggest independent film festival in the world attracts an array of high-caliber performers. Over the years, music at Sundance has become almost as big an attraction as watching films. One of the easiest points of access is the ASCAP Music Café (751 Main Street) which is open to all festival credential holders. Here's some photos of the amazing artists who stopped by during the 2017 Sundance Film Festival between January 20-27th)
