"Hawaii has been feeling the pain of devastation and loss over the last couple of weeks. The wildfires have taken a horrific toll on Maui's beaches, homes, and natural environment. We are heartbroken and deeply saddened to see how this has impacted our brothers, sisters, their families and community. Last week, we had many conversations with locals here in WA and HI about what we could do that would have the biggest impact to Kokua (help) and decided to turn our new festival 'Reggae on the Way – Summer Sessions' into a wildfire relief: 'Maui Aid on the Way'. The Polynesian community has shown us so much support over the years by attending and performing at our events, so it was automatic for us to help. -Dan Rankin, CEO of Danno Presents and owner of the Airport Tavern

Mark your calendars for an empowering evening of live music in celebration of International Women’s Day! On Friday, March 7, Nashville Tour Stop will host a special all-female lineup at Bassline Brewing Company, benefiting Anthems Against Abuse. The event, hosted by Christina Brennan, promises an unforgettable night of music, community, and advocacy.

When: Friday, March 7, 2025
Time: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Where: Bassline Brewing Company, 410 39th Ave N, Nashville, TN 37209

International Women’s Day, officially recognized by the United Nations in 1977, is a global celebration that honors the achievements of women, raises awareness about the challenges they face, and advocates for gender equality.

The evening’s lineup includes performances by:
6:00 PM: Lynagh, Eva Cassell, Kadie Jacobs, Paige Rose
7:00 PM: Winter Wilson, Sam Costigan, Kelsey Miller, Chapel Bell
8:00 PM: Don’t Call Me Tina, Elyse Wilkinson, Katie Pederson, Genna Matthew

"International Women’s Day is a time to honor the strength, creativity, and resilience of women, both on and off the stage," said Aaron Schilb, founder of Nashville Tour Stop. "This show is more than just great music—it’s a platform for solidarity and change."

Proceeds from the concert will support Anthems Against Abuse, a nonprofit co-founded by songwriters Daisy Sellas and Brittany Bishop. The organization raises awareness about domestic violence and funds critical services provided by the YWCA, the Mary Parrish Center, and the Office of Family Safety at Metro Nashville.

Daisy, a domestic violence survivor, uses her personal story to inspire and empower others. After enduring two years of emotional and physical abuse, she overcame both the trauma of her relationship and a methamphetamine addiction introduced by her abuser. Brittany, an alternative country artist, is known for her advocacy work with RAINN, channeling her own experience with the #MeToo movement to help women heal from sexual violence.

Domestic violence is far more prevalent than many realize. Nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the U.S. One in three women have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner, and intimate partner violence accounts for 15% of violent crime (Source: National Coalition Against Domestic Violence). In Tennessee, nearly 40% of women will experience domestic violence in their lifetime, with cases numbering in the tens of thousands each year (Source: The Tennessean via Anthems Against Abuse).

No tickets are required for the show, but donations will be accepted at the door. Unable to attend? You can still support Anthems Against Abuse by making a direct contribution here.

Experience an unforgettable evening of music, community, and empowerment, celebrating the strength of women and amplifying voices for change. So come in, sit down, order up a round, and remember: all roads lead to the Nashville Tour Stop.
