NASHVILLE, TN – (August 8, 2019) – Musicians Corner will return to Centennial Park this fall for its second annual September Sundown series held each Thursday evening in the month of September. Each event will feature multi-genre performances, a variety of food trucks, craft beer and signature cocktails, local artisans, and Kidsville activities.
“There’s no better time than the fall to enjoy music outdoors in Nashville,” said Justin Branam, Musicians Corner Program Director. “We can’t wait to return to Centennial Park in September to showcase some of the best local bands that Music City has to offer."
September Sundown will take place on Thursdays, September 5, 12, 19, and 26 from 5 - 9 PM. Each event will spotlight a local community organization to raise awareness and collect donations. Featured Community Partners this season include Nashville Humane Association, Fort Houston Artisan Support Project, Instruments of Joy, and Gilda's Club Middle Tennessee.
In addition, Musicians Corner will once again partner with AMERICANAFEST® on Thursday, September 12 to present an official AMERICANAFEST® showcase in Centennial Park. This partnership will give the Nashville community an opportunity to see an AMERICANAFEST® showcase for free.
“There is nothing like Musicians Corner in Music City," said Sarah Comardelle, AMERICANAFEST® Festival Producer. “Year after year, they continue to bring free, quality music programming to Nashville, and we're excited to join in on the fun once again. This official showcase in the beautiful Centennial Park will give attendees a taste of AMERICANAFEST® in a family-friendly environment.”
September Sundown 2019 will feature live multi-genre performances by piana troubadour Gabe Dixon, southern fried brand of blues Marcus King Band, local americana rocker Dylan LeBlanc, local soul band, The New Respects, and many more.
