Jelly Roll opens studio in Nashville’s Juvenile Detention Center

Jelly Roll has officially opened a music studio in Nashville’s Juvenile Detention Center.

After dedicating a portion of the proceeds from his Bridgestone Arena headlining show last December, he opened the studio during a “Redemption Songs” event hosted by the Beat of Life Organization.

Jelly Roll and fellow Nashville native Ernest both performed at the new studio for those currently incarcerated, along with other artists, volunteers and songwriters. Also in attendance were Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell, who introduced Jelly Roll, as well as Juvenile Court Judge Sheila Calloway and a handful of music industry members in addition to local and national correctional leaders. The studio seeks to be a lasting resource for aspiring musicians to create in the very place Jelly Roll was once housed as a youth.
