Southern Illinois University Edwardsville's WSIE 88.7 The Sound will be on site with Music At The Intersection (MATI) for the fourth year in a row, to help usher in some of the greatest musical entertainment from around the world. MATI will take place from Saturday-Sunday, Sept. 14-15 in the Grand Center District in St. Louis, Mo.

WSIE continues as one of the media sponsors, letting the community know about the top-notch entertainers performing through this year. MATI will be on four stages, showcasing such acts as Esperanza Spalding, Stanley Clarke, The Black Pumas, Samara Joy and Chaka Khan!

WSIE will be on hand to greet listeners and lovers of jazz music, as they move throughout the festival, that offers great food, pop-up businesses and more.

"This year's MATI is packed with sensational talent and promises to show festival goers a great time," said WSIE General Manager Jason Church. "WSIE is grateful to once again play a part in bringing outstanding artists to our area."
