Sony Music Nashville and WME partnered Monday night (March 11) to present a special concert event celebrating Women’s History Month. Rising stars Carlton Anderson, Robert Counts, Hannah Dasher, Seaforth, and Rachel Wammack performed tributes to some of the most impactful artists in country during the show. Female students from Pearl-Cohn Entertainment Magnet High School’s Academy of Entertainment Industry were guests of SMN and WME with front row seats. The event raised $3,250 for She Is The Music, a non-profit dedicated to creating change for women and building an equal future for music through various programs and initiatives.
