Musicians On Call (MOC) Nashville is celebrating its fifth anniversary this month. Since launching in April 2007, the organization has delivered the healing power of music to more than 50,000 patients, staff and families in Middle Tennessee. Through the generosity of local volunteers and supporters, MOC Nashville has been able to sustain ten Bedside Performance Programs and expand into six area hospitals with its new program kicking off later this month at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.

With the help of artists like Trace Adkins, Darius Rucker, Blake Shelton and Kellie Pickler, MOC Nashville is now able to offer its 11th weekly Bedside Performance Program. Watch a special video message from Pickler below.

In celebration of this benchmark year, a special edition Fifth Anniversary Hatch Show Print commemorative poster will be produced this summer. Supporters have the opportunity to include their names on the print by donating $100 by May 25. Donations may be made here.

MOC Nashville has also created a Young Professionals Committee (YPC) which recently threw its first event and raised over $1,500.
