Anthems Against Abuse: An Inside Look

Daisy Sellas and Brittany Bishop are the co-founders of Anthems Against Abuse, a Nashville-based non-profit dedicated to providing support and resources to victims of domestic violence and other forms of abuse. Their flagship event — a music showcase featuring all female-fronted artists — is in its second year, taking place at The Coliseum in Nashville on Saturday, June 14.

Daisy and Brittany share the story behind the organization, and we take a deep dive into why it’s important to identify and stop signs of abuse in their tracks.

Community, Artistpreneurship, and Releasing the Anchors

I want to thank Kevin Cobus and The Indie Distributor — the wonderful folks behind Gussapolooza, one of our favorite festivals here at UMC — for this spirited conversation on The Indie Distributor podcast.

This conversation took place during the #RoadtoSXSW, and takes a deep dive into the importance of collaboration within a creative ecosystem (like the one we’re building here). We also touch on several of my 60+ Lessons from the Creative Journey, and highlight the importance of showing up for ourselves — while setting healthy boundaries.

PHOTOS: NuRenaissance Media’s Certified Lounge Podcast

We had the opportunity to swing by Solberg Studios on Nashville’s historic Jefferson St. this weekend. Camera in tow, we helped capture some upcoming episodes of the Certified Lounge podcast, produced by NuRenaissance Media.

Hosts Samaria Kay and Amoré Dear welcomed a series of guests who are making a difference in the creative community, including Ether Collective founder Joe Baze, Guidance Whiskey founder Jason Ridgel, and performing artists Trane Spitta and MyaSimone. Episodes are set to release a bit later this spring, and feature inspired performances and insightful, forward-thinking conversations from some of Nashville’s most spirited entrepreneurs.

We’ve got some behind the scenes photos of the performances below. Be sure to tap in with our friends at NuRenaissance Media for updates!

ARTISTS: Fund Your Music Without a Major Label

That’s where beatBread comes in. This innovative platform gives independent artists access to responsible, sustainable advances — without the need to sign a major label deal. Matthew Tilley — beatBread’s Head of Artist and Industry Development — shines a light on this company’s forward-thinking, artist-first mission.

David Tucker: An Artist’s Story of Resilience

David Tucker’s new self-titled EP is a reflection on the road he’s traveled not only as an independent artist, but as a human being. The rising pop-country artist is no stranger to overcoming adversity, having battled an autoimmune disorder and surviving a near-fatal car wreck on his way to a place of gratitude, connection, and creative fulfillment.

David shares his courageous story with us on this week’s episode of The Quinn Spinn.
