We’re excited to launch a brand-new series spotlighting some of Nashville’s top student songwriters! We’re kicking things off tonight with MTSU, where three student songwriters will compete for one spot in the finale. After the MTSU songwriter is chosen, we’ll do the same with Vanderbilt, followed by Belmont. Then, in the final week, the three selected songwriters (one from each school) will share their songs in one last showcase for the ultimate prize: a TLR-branded Taylor guitar!

After each show, voting will open on The Listening Room’s Instagram, so make sure you’re following us and cast your vote for the songwriter you want to advance.

MTSU — tonight, it’s your turn! Who’s taking that first spot in the finale?
