Lee Brice & Carly Pearce

Backstage Access Presents is bringing its destination-driven event series to the heart of country music with “Backstage Access Presents: Music City,” taking place Nov. 15–18 in Nashville.

The three-day experience will feature performances and appearances from Lee Brice, Carly Pearce, Chase Rice, Flatland Cavalry, Matt Stell, Charlie Worsham, John Cooper Albright, Presley Aaronson, Boomtown Saints, Six One Five Collective, Braison Cyrus, Sam Drysdale, Mack Geiger, Erin Grand, Braden Hull, Brandon Helder, Jordan Dane Johnson, Jet Jurgensmeyer, Alannah McCready, Lilly Moss, Tori Rose, MaRynn Taylor and XOLEX.

“Backstage Access Presents: Music City” will bring artists, industry leaders, partners, and guests together in intimate settings throughout Nashville during one of country music’s biggest weeks of the year. Through showcases, songwriter rounds, hospitality experiences and behind-the-scenes access, the event is designed to remove the barriers that often separate artists, decision-makers and audiences, and create space for conversations and relationships to develop organically.

Programming will unfold across Nashville over three days, with intimate artist performances and songwriter rounds, hospitality experiences with brand partners, Music Row gatherings, and late-night events. The experience will culminate during CMA Awards night with a private watch party and celebration.

The Music City installment builds on the foundation established by Backstage Access Presents: Napa Valley, which debuted in April and was set among Napa Valley’s wineries and estates, pairing intimate performances with culinary and wine experiences while connecting artists with radio programmers, music supervisors, industry leaders, brand partners, and tastemakers.

Rather than recreating Napa Valley in a new location, “Backstage Access Presents: Music City” is being shaped around the city itself – its listening rooms, songwriter culture, iconic venues, hospitality and the relationships that have long made Nashville one of the world’s most influential music communities. The three-day experience is intended to give guests a closer look at the artists, stories and people shaping country music today.

“Napa Valley showed us just how powerful it can be when you bring great artists and great people together in an environment that feels personal and allows real relationships to develop,” says Bobbii Jacobs, Founder of Backstage Access Presents. “Bringing that experience to Nashville during CMA Awards week felt like a natural next step. Music City is built on songs, stories and relationships, and that’s really at the heart of what Backstage Access Presents is all about. We’ve put together an incredible mix of established artists and emerging talent, and we’re excited to create three days where people can discover new music, reconnect with longtime friends and build relationships that continue well beyond the event.”
