Direct From Nashville: Songwriters in the Round

Welcome to Direct from Nashville: Songwriters in the Round

Join us at the beautiful Arabella Estate in Buxton ME for an unforgettable afternoon experiencing live music straight from Music City. After thoughtful curation with our Tennessee colleagues, we are bringing a blend of some of Nashville’s established hit-making and next “break through" artists and songwriters to Maine for this signature event, to experience their unique talent, creativity, and the power of storytelling through music.

The talent selected for the Direct From Nashville event series have written for, opened for, shared the stage with and otherwise collaborated with a veritable list of accomplished cross-genre Grammy, CMA and other award-winning acts – from Billy Joel, Charles Kelley (Lady A), Faith Hill, Gabby Barrett, Gary Clark Jr., Miranda Lambert, Katy Perry, Little Big Town and Phoebe Bridgers to Pink, Sheryl Crow, Steven Tyler (Aerosmith), Tim McGraw, Walker Hayes and Zac Brown Band ... just to name a few! They have been featured everywhere from intimate Nashville stages (such as The Bluebird Café, The Listening Room, 3rd and Lindsley, etc.) to the 90,000-seat Wembley Stadium in London.

This is an intimate in-person event as most songwriters round are, allowing the audience to feel up close and personal with each of the artists / songwriters (behind some of the hits you love!), as they perform solo acoustic (one after the other “in a round”) – but often joining in with each other adding harmonies and/or contributing guitar / piano riffs, etc. A lot of the fun comes through the “living room vibe” of the writers discussing how and why they wrote the songs, their storytelling, and the writer interactions.

These types of sell-out events are a mainstay in the Nashville music community … and now, we’re bringing that experience right here to Maine. We look forward to your joining us for this unique opportunity and evening to remember!
