Songwriters from Nashville, Los Angeles and New York City schmoozed on a rooftop party at Nashville’s Element Music Row on Aug. 20 as part of the inaugural Nash Pop Welcome Party.

The event is a collaborative work betweenStarstruck Writers Group and artist development company Holy Graffiti, in an effort to cultivate relationships among rising songwriters, artists and musicians.

“Nothing brings me more joy than to have some of the most talented people in the world all in one beautiful room, breaking bread, and celebrating new relationships, and new music, from first time collaborations. Hopefully this party helped to inspire fresh ideas and excitement for what’s to come,” said Holy Graffiti’s Shane Stevens.

“Before I knew Shane Stevens, I was a fan of his work,” says Courtney Allen, Creative Director for Starstruck Writers Group. ” The best thing about this industry is that you get to work with your friends. Eric, Shane and I share the same passion and vision so it seemed like a no brainer to team up with them to create something truly special that has never been done before in Nashville. This is just the beginning of big things to come for Starstruck and Holy Graffiti,” said Allen.

Music tech company Jammber sponsored the event, as the company’s CEO/founder Marcus Cobb offered a presentation that showed Jammber’s ability to manage creative projects and income for artists, songwriters, producers and contributors.
