United Way’s “LIVE UNITED” Summer Song Contest
Attention Singer/Songwriters: Do you have a song about hope, teamwork, restoration or overcoming adversity? Maybe a song inspired by Nashville’s recent flood? If so, enter it in United Way’s “LIVE UNITED” Summer Song Contest for a chance to perform it live at 3rd and Lindsley during United Way’s “Stuff the Bus” School Supply Drive Launch Concert on June 24th (featuring Kink Ador and KNAPSACKHEROES).
Two finalists will perform and the winner will be announced at the event. The winner’s song may used in an upcoming UNITED WAY “DAY OF ACTION” video, which will be featured on UnitedWayNashville.org and emailed to thousands of our partners across the city.
