If you’ve been waiting for a reason to hit up Nashville’s buzzing music scene, the Nashville Showcase is it. Amanda Shires and Brittney Spencer are set to take the stage, headlining a musical evening that’s equal parts electric and empowering. And here’s the kicker? It’s free. Yes, free. Just bring your energy, your friends, and maybe a standing ovation or two.
Amanda Shires and Brittney Spencer Headline Nashville Showcase for Women in Music
The Nashville Showcase, happening on Wednesday, August 27, at the intimate Anzie Blue venue in Hillsboro Village, is not just another night of great live music. It’s a celebration of women in music, diversity in genre, and all the trailblazers making it happen. Presented by She Is the Music, FEMco, and Anzie Blue, this event is designed to spotlight female artists who are reshaping the industry one note at a time.
Alongside Shires and Spencer, the lineup features a crew of ultra-talented artists like Cecilia Castleman, Haven Madison, M’Lynn, and Queen Anne. Think of it as a masterclass in live performance delivered by some of the industry’s fiercest female stars. Each artist will not only perform but also bring their personality to the stage with a short discussion about their music journeys. Get ready to feel inspired, people.
Why This Showcase Is a Big Deal

Founded by Alicia Keys (yes, that Alicia Keys), Jody Gerson, Ann Mincieli, and Sam Kirby Yoh, this organization is on a mission to tip the scales for women in the music industry. From global songwriting camps to mentorship programs, they’re about leveling up opportunities for female creators and professionals.
And then there’s FEMco, the brainchild of music executive Leslie Fram, focused on amplifying the voices of female artists through career development and strategic connections. Pairing up with Anzie Blue (a cozy, 250-capacity venue co-owned by Marcie Allen), the event feels like the perfect blend of grassroots passion and professional polish.
Did I mention the best part? For the stay-at-home types or those not based in Nashville, you can catch the whole Nashville Showcase via livestream on Volume.com. You literally have zero excuses to miss it.
A Sneak Peek at Last Month’s Event
Still not sold? Last month’s show featured killer acts like Maggie Rose, Jillian Jacqueline, and indie darling Stella Prince. It set the bar high, but if there’s one thing we know about this team, they’re all about over-delivering. Plus, there’s a post-show mixer in case you want to geek out about the performances (or network, because hey, this is Nashville).
