NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The historic War Memorial Auditorium announces NASHVILLE HOUSE CONCERTS, a 10-month concert series hosted by SiriusXM radio personality Storme Warren and Country artist Joe Denim, starting Thursday, Sept. 7, and continuing the first Thursday of every month through June 2018.
The Sept. 7 line-up includes the multi-platinum, multiple GRAMMY® Award-nominated Country singer Martina McBride; multi-platinum, GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter Josh Osborne; multiple GRAMMY® Award-winning singer, songwriter, and record producer Shane McAnally; up-and-coming Nashville sensation Ryan Kinder, and Country music artist Joe Denim.
Tickets for all 10 shows in the NASHVILLE HOUSE CONCERTS series are $25 each and are on sale now at WMArocks.com, by phone at 615-782-4030, and at the TPAC Box Office, 505 Deaderick St., in downtown Nashville. For groups of 10 or more, call 615-782-4060.
“We are really excited to work with Storme and Joe in presenting a show that celebrates the Nashville music community in such an intimate format,” said Brent Hyams, Chief Operating Officer for the Tennessee Performing Arts Center and War Memorial Auditorium. “This is going to be fun.”
Warren, a 24-year veteran of the Nashville music industry who hosts the daily morning show on SiriusXM Satellite Radio’s “The Highway” and is known as the “Dick Clark of Country Music,” and Denim, a Country music artist who writes songs with witty lyrics and Shel Silverstein-like twists, like his hit “Pray For You,” will invite guests into their make-shift living room at War Memorial Auditorium each month.
The live musical variety show is a uniquely Nashville experience to showcase a diverse blend of talent from chart-topping artists, music legends, rising stars and accomplished songwriters. Every show promises musical performances, imaginative interviews, surprise guests and unpredictably funny experiences.
“This is about Nashville, its music and the moment. And no two moments will ever be the same. Rising stars, established legends, songwriters and entertainers of all types will share this iconic space together with the audience,” Warren said. “And the audience will always play a key role in each show. Joe and I will more than likely embarrass ourselves on a regular basis. We’re kind of like the weird uncles you only have over for holiday dinners – fun to be around for a while but you’re not real sorry when we leave.”
“Imagine the coolest living room you’ve never been to,” continues Denim. “There is a bar, comfy couches, an all-star band and a denim-wrapped baby grand piano. Musical guests and comedians from across all genres drop in to tell stories, sing songs and make jokes. All the while, Storme and I make the audience feel like companions at home, in between two plants, on a Thursday night live!”
