Roots on the Rivers

Roots on the Rivers is a celebration of American Roots music at Two Rivers Mansion in Nashville/Donelson featuring performances from Maggie Rose, Lera Lynn, Mike Farris, Nicki Bluhm, The Lost Trailers and 49 Winchester.This one-day outdoor festival features six hours of music, a beer garden, marketplace, vendors and food all to benefit WMOT, a nonprofit, public radio station playing American Roots music in Middle Tennessee.

The Hardings and McGavocks were founding families of Nashville and both are wrapped up in the story of Two Rivers Mansion, the Civil War era estate between the Stones and Cumberland Rivers in Donelson. It’s a national register landmark house and shady park that’s off the radar for a lot of folks. But we’ll be there making a joyful noise on Saturday, Aug. 27 when WMOT presents Roots On The Rivers.
