Kickin Kountry 101 is taking over Nashville during CMA Fest!

Kickin’ Kountry 101 is throwing the ultimate unofficial kickoff party during the week of CMA FEST 25 and you’re invited to be part of our live radio broadcast audience.

It’s Breakin’ Indies Live, happening Wednesday, June 4th from 5 to 8 PM Central at Bootleggers Inn, right on Broadway in Nashville.

Presented by Nashville Universe, Get Joe Records, and Kickin’ Kountry 101, this special event will be hosted by our own Shannon Steele alongside 90’s country legend and Grammy-nominated artist Deborah Allen.

From 5 to 7 PM, enjoy full-band performances from some of the biggest names in independent country: Lewis Brice, Ira Dean, Deborah Allen, Celeste Kellogg, BoomTown Saints, and Maddye Trew.

Then from 7 to 8 PM, stick around for the Fierce Females Songwriter Showcase hosted by Maddye Trew, featuring rising stars Onoleigh, Grace West, Paige King Johnson, and Tori Rose.

Admission is free, and we’ll be accepting donations at the door to support Instruments for Education — helping provide musical instruments to students in need across the country.

Come out and support the artists changing the face of country music, grab some Kickin’ Kountry swag, and help us give back — Wednesday, June 4th from 5 to 8 PM at Bootleggers Inn, 207 Broadway in Nashville.
