Pretty much everything you can draw up in a utopian setting for a music festival is in play here. Locale: exotic and gorgeous; infrastructure: in place and ready to party; organization: getting sharper each year; artist’s buy-in: 100%.; fan experience: peerless.”

31ST ANNUAL TIN PAN SOUTH SONGWRITERS FESTIVAL SET FOR MARCH 28 - APRIL 1

THE NASHVILLE SONGWRITERS ASSOCIATION INTERNATIONAL TO REVEAL LINEUP, BEGIN PASS SALES MARCH 3 

The Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) announces additional details for its 31st Annual Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival presented by Regions Bank. Taking place Tuesday, March 28, through Saturday, April 1, 2023, the famous Nashville staple will takeover ten stages across Music City in many of the most popular and hottest venues! Locations include: 3rd & Lindsley, Analog at Hutton Hotel (stage presented by Musicnotes), The Bluebird Cafe, Commodore Grille, Cross-Eyed Critters Watering Hole (stage presented by Tennessee Entertainment Commission), Hard Rock Café Nashville, The Lounge at City Winery (stage presented by Recording Academy Songwriters & Composers Wing), The Listening Room Cafe (stage presented by Visit Music City), Live Oak, and at The Vinyl Lounge (stage presented by Nashville Scene).

NSAI will reveal the full festival lineup on Friday, March 3. Week-long passes will go on sale that day at 10:00 a.m. CT at www.tinpansouth.com. Pass pricing is $145 for NSAI members and $175 for general public. If you are a member of NSAI, be sure to log in to your account to receive the member price! Passes typically sell out within 48 hours, so set your alarms! There will be a cash line at every show for those looking to attend on an individual basis – availability will be based on venue capacity and admission is not guaranteed.

Tin Pan South is one of Nashville’s most revered and highly anticipated events of the year and the 2023 festival will be no exception! Each venue will host early and late rounds throughout the week, showcasing hundreds of songwriters from Nashville, around the country, and beyond. With an array of musical talent spanning multiple genres, the entire week will be filled with a variety of unforgettable moments.

One show of note at The Bluebird Cafe will be curated by The Saxon Pub, a legendary Austin, Texas music venue, and will feature songwriters from the Lone Star State. The show is part two of a unique exchange program between The Bluebird Cafe and The Saxon Pub, and designed by NSAI to showcase and support the songwriters from the two music communities. Part one will be presented at The Saxon Pub during South by South West (SXSW) in mid-March. The Tin Pan South performance will cap off the inaugural partnership. “A greater presence in Texas is a priority for NSAI,” said Executive Director Bart Herbison.

Each year, Tin Pan South selects a nonprofit organization to receive proceeds from one of the participating shows. The Store has been chosen as the the official charity for 2023. The free year-round grocery store on 12th Avenue South at Caldwell Avenue in Nashville allows qualifying families to ‘shop’ for their basic needs with dignity. The Store collaborates with other organizations to solve hunger issues through food security and community empowerment programs.

Thank you to our annual Tin Pan South corporate partners: Regions Bank (title sponsor), Southwest (official airline) NewsChannel 5 (official broadcast partner) Jack Daniel’s, Visit Music City, ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, Graduate Hotel, and Hutton Hotel.

#FESTIVALNEWS - BUCKLE & BOOTS REVEAL THEIR SUMMER LINE-UP FOR 2023

Buckle & Boots returns with another stellar line-up for 2023, taking place over the bank holiday weekend of the 25th - 28th May at Whitebottom Farm near Manchester. Continuing their loyal commitment to supporting homegrown talent, as well as introducing rising stars from across the pond to a UK fan base, this year once again sees an array of talent from all over the world, including America, Australia, Canada and the Netherlands.

Buckle & Boots are delighted to welcome Everette to Whitebottom Farm for the first time. UK country fans will be familiar with the Kentucky born duo who wowed audiences at C2C, The Long Road Festival and when they opened for Sara Evans on her recent UK Tour. Rooted in country, rock & roll, southern storytelling, and heartland hooks, Everette proudly blur the boundaries between themselves and their audience. For them, music is all about community and connection which sits perfectly with B&B’s ethos and why they are sure to be warmly embraced by everyone attending.

Following the tradition of presenting Canadian country stars such as Brett Kissel (2019), Tebey (2021), Matt Lang & Dan Davidson (2022), this year’s line-up includes Aaron Goodvin from the Land of the Maple Leaf. The Alberta-bred, Nashville-based country music star has topped the charts, produced a number one single and had several top 10s. Additionally he scored multiple CCMA and JUNO Award wins and nominations, most notably winning the 2018 CCMA Songwriter of the Year. Additionally, he has had songwriter cuts by Luke Bryan, Jon Pardi, Cole Swindell, and Josh Gracin.

Josh Setterfield’s ground-breaking single ‘Right About Now’ has accrued over 1 million streams and propelled him towards the heights of country music in his native Australia. Backed by a loyal and rapidly growing fan base, back-to-back #1’s on CMT, global playlisting and radio play, he is raising the bar with every release and performance.

There will be a special songwriters round on display as D. Vincent Williams (Rascal Flatts, James Otto, Ty Herndon), Trick Savage (Trisha Yearwood, Ashley McBryde, Eric Church) and Blue Foley (Ashley McBryde) roll into the farm for their UK debut. Having written for some of the biggest talent in Nashville it’s sure to be a jewel in the line-up.

Buckle & Boots attendees favourite Jeremy McComb returns for 2023, building on his recent UK Tour with Dan Olsen (who is also on the billing) in November. America continues to be well represented with Nashville recording artists The Reeves Brothers, Jessie G and Watt Wynn all performing under the Stars & Stripes flag along with Minneapolis based singer-songwriter Chastity Brown. Dutch songstress Deborah Parlor makes up the international contingent.

Buckle & Boots will once more welcome some of the best UK talent to their stages this summer with Katy Hurt, Matt Hodges and Two Ways Home all making an appearance. They will be joined by the popular country supergroup The Honkytonk Roadshow and a special performance by the newly formed The Country Orchestra.

Offering something different for Thursday the 25th, entertainment comes in the form of Old Time Sailors, a musical show designed to take the audience back in time through an unforgettable trip to the 19th century and beyond.

Full line-up available on the Buckle & Boots social media pages and website.

DARIUS RUCKER BRINGS NEW MUSIC FESTIVAL TO HIS CHARLESTON, S.C. HOMETOWN THIS FALL

Riverfront Revival Set for October 8 and 9 at Riverfront Park

Multi-Platinum entertainer Darius Rucker has partnered with one of the Southeast’s leading entertainment agencies, SRE Entertainment, to fulfill his longtime dream of bringing a unique music festival to his beloved hometown of Charleston, S.C. Set to take place Saturday, October 8 and Sunday, October 9 at North Charleston’s beautiful Riverfront Park, the family-friendly Riverfront Revival music festival presented by Discover South Carolina will feature curated offerings of the Lowcountry’s best food, libations, art and culture along with music performances mixing the best of country and rock.

In addition to a headlining performance from Rucker himself, the two days of entertainment will also include performances by Brothers Osborne, Trampled By Turtles, Jimmie Allen, Charley Crockett, SUSTO and more across two stages from 1-11 p.m. daily.

“Anyone who knows me knows how much I love Charleston,” shares Rucker. “For years now, I’ve had this bucket list dream of bringing together a bunch of friends to perform in a way that also showcases this incredible city and all it has to offer. I can’t wait to see it become a reality this fall – and I hope the fans are as excited as we are!”

“Riverfront Revival will be the perfect culmination of feel-good music across genres set against the beautiful backdrop of the Cooper River,” adds SRE Entertainment Partner Rob Lamble. “We’re thrilled to bring a new fall music tradition to the Holy City, and are honored to be doing so with Darius Rucker and his team.”

“Darius is a home-grown star with a genuine love for his state, making him an incredible ambassador for South Carolina,” notes Duane Parrish, Director of the South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism. “We are all looking forward to celebrating South Carolina’s Lowcountry and welcoming thousands of visitors to this one-of-kind music festival in October.”

General admission tickets start at $124.50 per person (plus fees), with payment plans starting at just $25 down. VIP tickets start at $399.50 per person (plus fees), with payment plans starting at $50 down. VIP ticket holders will have access to a dedicated entrance lane, priority viewing areas at both stages, VIP lounge areas, premium restrooms, a dedicated bar and more.

Part of Rucker’s passion for his hometown includes an innate desire to give back to the community, instilled by his late mother who was a nurse at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). He has raised millions of dollars for the hospital throughout his career and will continue to do so via Riverfront Revival, with $1 of each ticket sold supporting the MUSC Arts in Healing program. MUSC’s board-certified and registered Arts in Healing therapists work with children and adults to identify, explore and transform emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual difficulties through Clinical Art and Music Therapy.

“There is a national children’s mental health crisis and South Carolina is no exception,” shares Mark Scheurer, M.D., Chief, Children’s & Women's Integrated Center of Clinical Excellence at MUSC. “The MUSC Arts in Healing program provides a safe and tangible method for our patients and families to address underlying fears, anxieties and concerns in the clinical environment. The joy and healing the therapy team helps create is possible because of our community and philanthropic-minded people like Mr. Rucker.”

Tickets will be available in three phases, each starting at 10 a.m. ET via RiverfrontRevival.com:
Darius Rucker exclusive fan pre-sale starting Monday, May 2.
Riverfront Revival pre-sale starting Tuesday, May 3.
General admission on-sale starting Wednesday, May 4.
