The Frist Fridays concert series will return to the Frist Center for the Visual Arts starting May 25, and Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Rodney Crowell will open the season.
Frist Fridays takes place 6-9 pm on the final Friday of each month from May to August, for a total of four concert events. In addition to Crowell, other Frist Fridays performers include Sam Bush with Lera Lynn (June 29), Band of Heathens (July 27), and The Dynamites featuring Charles Walker (August 31).
“We have added a fourth Frist Friday evening to our lineup this year,” said Frist Center Executive Director and CEO Susan H. Edwards, Ph.D. “Music plays a significant role so much that goes on at the Frist, and we are pleased this year to pair uniquely American musicians with self-taught American artists, the quilters of Gee’s Bend, Thornton Dial and Bill Traylor. We often describe the Frist as THE place in Nashville where music and art come together, and Frist Fridays is a tremendous example of that creative marriage.”
Patrons can enjoy music, snacks and beverages, and the exhibitions on view in the Frist Center’s galleries. The events take place rain or shine, and guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs. Admission is free for Frist Center members and $10 for non-members.
