Award-winning singer-songwriter and sustainability activist Dana Lyons — known for the humorous song “Cows With Guns” — will perform at the College of Charleston’s Foodstock music and food festival.

The three-hour festival features food and music and is hosted by the Office of Sustainability and will be held in the Stern Center Garden from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, April 27. Lyons, who performed at the College in 2014, is the headliner, with additional sets by  Whitehall and Camel Blues Band.
