Rounding out a monumental year in her career, Kalie Shorr will join the star-studded and diverse lineup of Jack Daniel's Music City Midnight: New Year's Eve in Nashville, the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp announced on Friday. She will help Nashville ring in the New Year with Keith Urban, Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit, The Struts, Amanda Shires, Bren Joy and the Fisk Jubilee Singers.
Last year, the Nashville concert was featured on "NBC's New Year's Eve" national broadcast that was live from Times Square in New York City. It was the most successful New Year's Eve event for Nashville with an all-time high $23 million in direct visitor spending over 2017's $22.3 million. Attendance was approximately 175,000 to 200,000, a record attendance over 2015's 150,000. Gates at Bicentennial Mall will open at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 31 with DJ Case Bloom providing entertainment before the Music Note is raised. The Fisk Jubilee Singers, an ensemble of students from Fisk University, will kick off the live music with a selection of Spiritual music. The show's highlight will be the traditional Music Note Drop and accompanying fireworks display to usher in the New Year. GRAMMY-winner DJ Dave Audé also will be part of the lineup.
