615 Indie Live

February 7, 2026

615 Indie Live is Nashville’s night for independent music. It brings the spotlight to the city’s local venues, showcases the artists who shape our sound, and gathers the fans who keep the music alive. Born from a collaboration between MVAN and Visit Music City, the event has grown into a community-driven stage where independent music takes the lead. On February 7, 2026, 615 Indie Live returns to turn up the volume once again.
