Chris Young has been tapped as the headliner for “Let Freedom Sing! July 4 in Music City,” Nashville’s July 4 celebration at Riverfront Park. Presented by Dr Pepper Cherry, the free event will also include the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, R&B artist Jonny P, and folk rock duo The Sisterhood, featuring Alyssa Bonagura and Ruby Stewart, daughter of Rod Stewart.

The show kicks off an extended patriotic weekend that will include MercyMe in concert at Ascend Amphitheater on July 6, My Morning Jacket and Margo Price at Ascend July 7, and the Gold Cup soccer double-header featuring the U.S. Men’s National Team taking place on July 8 at Nissan Stadium.

“This is another great lineup that showcases the immense diversity of music that calls Nashville home,” said Beth Seigenthaler Courtney, board chair of the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp and president at DVL Seigenthaler. “This year we have even more to offer with additional live music at Ascend Amphitheater leading up to a Gold Cup double-header featuring the U.S. national men’s soccer team. We always expect tens of thousands of visitors to enjoy our Independence Day festivities, and, with these additional activities, we expect to fill even more hotel rooms across Davidson County and generate substantial economic activity that is good for the city.”
