BBR Music Group trio Runaway June will be the featured entertainment for the 2020 Symphony Fashion Show, set for April 14 at Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

This year’s event will highlight the fashions of designer Zang Toi. The Symphony Fashion Show is presented each year via a partnership between the Nashville Symphony and Gus Mayer of Nashville.

“The Symphony Fashion Show has become one of Nashville’s most glamorous and spectacular events, a can’t-miss evening that brings together the best of fashion and music to help support the important work the Nashville Symphony does in our community,” said chairpersons Barbara Burns and Ashley Rosen. “So it is only fitting that the Symphony Fashion Show’s landmark 15th year will showcase this fabulous and fast-rising trio of gifted musicians. Naomi, Hannah, and Jennifer’s gorgeous three-part harmonies are a perfect fit for the warm acoustics of the Schermerhorn, and pairing them with Zang Toi and his dazzling collection ensures that guests are in for a truly electrifying night in April.”
