Kelsea Ballerini will be honored at the Song Suffragettes 8th anniversary celebration on March 28 at the Listening Room Cafe in Nashville. Ballerini will be presented with the Song Suffragettes’ Yellow Rose of Inspiration Award for her contributions to the songwriting community.
During the special evening hit songwriter and frequent Ballerini collaborator Nicolle Galyon will interview the award-winning entertainer and discuss some of the songs that have inspired the nearly 350 women who have performed on the Song Suffragettes stage through the years.
Ballerini is only the fourth woman to receive this honor after esteemed songwriter/publisher Liz Rose (2019), hitmaker Laura Veltz (2020) and singer-songwriter Ashley McBryde (2021).
The evening’s two performance rounds will feature 11 writers, along with a performance by Ballerini. The first songwriter round will feature TMWK Records artist Kalie Shorr hosting with performances from Ava Suppelsa, Autumn Nicholas, Ava Paige and first-time Song Suffragette and Republic Records recording artist Lanie Gardner.
The second round of the evening will be hosted by Song Suffragettes alumna Lauren Hungate and feature singer-songwriters Caroline Watkins, Emily Brooke, first-time performer Peytan Porter, and BMG recording artist Madeline Merlo. Both rounds will feature Song Suffragettes’ long-time resident cajon player Mia Morris, who will be playing her 144th show and performing two of her own original songs.
Tickets to the show at Nashville’s The Listening Room Café are on sale now at the Café’s website. The show will also stream live on the Song Suffragettes YouTube channel.
