The evening was emceed by BMI’s Mason Hunter and DJ Smoke set the tone for BMI’s Nashville rooftop. Kicking off the night, The Hanseroth Twins performed a string of original songs including “Counting The Days” and “Remember Me,” while up-and-comer Kade Hoffman followed, soothing attendees with “Tired of Waiting,” “Lady Luck,” “Bonfire Blues” and the contemporary western sounds from his just-released EP, Relics. Genre-blending, singer-songwriter Emily Nenni jumped into “Get To Know Ya,” “Useless,” and “Don’t Wanna Cry,” previewing her sound before taking the BMI Stage at the 2024 Austin City Limits Music Festival this October.
The crowd welcomed the evening’s headliner and one of the most in-demand artists in the genre Wyatt Flores to the stage. The Oklahoma songbird and AMA’s “Emerging Act of the Year” nominee opened with “Orange Bottles” and “Running Out Of Time,” before leading into crowd favorites like “Please Don’t Go” and “Milwaukee.” He continued his energized set with “Don’t Wanna Say Goodnight,” “Oh Susannah,” and title-track “Welcome To The Plains” from his upcoming album.
