Last night I worked at 12th & Porter, a popular local music venue in Nashville, with a music business group at my school called Service Corps. I was working with three other girls and our main task was checking people in at the door and collecting money (always a fun job :)), but we were inside the venue the whole time so we got to see both the shows that night which was so awesome! There were some really great musicians, in the first show we saw Mallary Hope, Natalie Hemby, Pat McLaughlin, and Angeleena Presley. There were all really great songwriters and performers. The next show, at 9:00 had more amazing songwriters like Harley Allen, Dave Pahanish, Anothony L. Smith, and Trent Tomlinson! I have to say that for the second show, although I loved them all and Harley Allen played some of his great hits (Awful Beautiful World, The Little Girl), my favorite of the bunch was Trent Tomlinson. I hadn't heard too much about him before but he played some great songs of his including "That's How It Still Ought to Be," and one he had written THAT DAY about a girlfriend who was crazy, but who he couldn't get enough of. It was a really fun time and I'm working there again on Friday so I'll keep y'all updated! Today, I'm meeting with Vinny Ribas who I met on LinkedIn, who is the Founder and President of IndieConnect, which is a company that gives artists advice on ways to improve their careers and profit financially as well as provides them with opportunities for great networking experiences! So, we are going to discuss how I can help get more Belmont Students involved with his company! It should be great :)
HAVE AN AWESOME DAY!!
