Messina’s Road Race Helps St. Jude

Curb artist Jo Dee Messina and Nashville Mayor Karl Dean lead over 800 runners on Saturday (5/16), in the rain-soaked inaugural Music Row Road Race benefiting the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The race and Messina’s headline concert at the Wildhorse Saloon that same evening raised $100,000 for the Hospital. Messina treated fans at a packed Wildhorse Saloon to a taste of her Music Room Series Tour, which features a stark stage with a grand piano and three of her musicians performing acoustically. She performed for two hours, took requests and answered questions from the audience. Messina is back on the road with her full band and will return to Nashville for her River Stages performance on June 13 and fan club party the following day during CMA Music Festival.
