Imagine an NPR Tiny Desk concert, pair it with a TED Talk - and set it on a stage with a listening room vibe.

TEDxChattanooga - the nonprofit that presents “ideas worth spreading” - returns to Songbirds in downtown Chattanooga on Friday, March 28th for its first event of this year: “Sessions” - featuring local musicians Randy Steele, Bindy and Fawley.
