Musicians On Call (MOC), a nonprofit that brings live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities, has served the Nashville community for ten years. To celebrate, MOC will host an exclusive concert event at City Winery on October 26th, presented by National Geographic, who has teamed up with the organization to support its Bedside Performance Programs that serve Veterans across the country. Guests will be treated to a star-studded lineup featuring a headlining performance by seven-time Grammy award winning group Lady Antebellum and surprise appearances and performances to be announced. The night will be hosted by iHeartMedia’s Nationally-Syndicated On-Air Personality and MOC Board Member Bobby Bones and will focus on celebrating how MOC uses music to spread joy and healing.
“Musicians On Call is always something we’re quick to be part of,” said Charles Kelley. “We’ve seen first-hand how powerful music is, especially in tough times, so we’re looking forward to helping celebrate their 10th anniversary.”
“We believe that Musicians On Call is the ‘Most Important Gig in Music City, “ and we’re excited to bring our supporters together for a great night of music with Lady Antebellum to celebrate our milestone,” said Pete Griffin, MOC President. “We couldn’t have reached this moment without the support of our volunteers, musicians, donors, hospital staff, partners, Advisory Board Members and Board of Directors who help us deliver the healing power of music to over 126,000 people in Nashville.”
Musicians On Call is offering tickets for purchase. Plus, fans have a chance to bid to attend as a VIP guest where you can walk the red carpet and sit at a celebrity artist’s table at the event, or meet Lady Antebellum.

Musicians On Call is encouraging volunteers and supporters to share their stories of their favorite moment bringing music to hospitals and tell others why volunteering is the #MostImportantGig in Nashville. In addition to the event, MOC will celebrate the 10th anniversary with high profile hospital visits, an online auction featuring signed memorabilia from stars like Keith Urban, Kelly Clarkson, Jason Aldean and more and a fundraising campaign to sponsor 300 hospital rooms through Musicians On Call’s Backstage Pass Club.
