Origins Music Group hosted its inaugural OMG Summer Block Party on June 6 at Plaza Mariachi in Nashville, bringing together artists, fans, families, local businesses and community organizations for a full day celebrating music, culture and connection.

The day-long festival showcased live performances from artists spanning country, Latin, Americana, hip-hop, rock and soul and was emceed by Nashville community leaders Franklin Willis, Ashlie Amber and Averianna the Personality. Performers included Ana Christina Cash, Andrea Vasquez, Angie K, Blanco Brown, Pynk Beard and more.

In addition to live music, hundreds of attendees enjoyed a wide variety of food truck offerings, shopped local vendors, and participated in meet-and-greets with the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders as well as Nashville Soccer Club’s mascot “Tempo the Coyote.” Guests also enjoyed family-friendly activities and a community marketplace that highlighted entrepreneurs, creatives and organizations from across Middle Tennessee.

The OMG Summer Block Party also served as an opportunity to introduce and raise awareness for Origins Music Impact, the organization’s newly established nonprofit initiative. Attendees were encouraged to learn more about the foundation’s mission to expand opportunities for artists, strengthen communities through music, and create meaningful pathways for education, mentorship and cultural engagement.

“Our goal was simple: create a place where people could come together, celebrate music, support local businesses, and enjoy community,” says Corey Jones, Co-Founder & CEO, Origins Music Group. “Seeing families, artists, vendors, and fans all sharing the same space reminded us why we do this work. This was bigger than a block party. This was a community experience.”
