The third night of the 26th Annual Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival Presented by Regions Bank saw sellouts all across the city including the much-anticipated Hitmen of Music Row show at 3rd & Lindsley, Jerrod Niemann and friends at SOUTH and Liz Rose, Emily Shackelton, Alyssa Micaela and Femke at Douglas Corner Cafe.
Bob DiPiero, Tony Mullins, Jeffrey Steele and Craig Wiseman gathered as The Hitmen of Music Row for the first time in 10 years at the 3rd & Lindsley late show. They picked up right where they left off with the kind of chemistry that can only come from close friendships and musical bonds.

The SESAC show at the Listening Room Cafe stage sponsored by Nashville Music City saw special guests Justin Wilson, Jimmie Allen and Jason Sever join NSAI board president Steve Bogard, Rob Hatch and Restless Road.
The ole music round at Whiskey Rhythm featured Jacob Powell, Austin Jenckes, Josh Dorr and several special guests.
