ANNOUNCING: MusicRow To Honor Rising Women on the Row

MusicRow announces the launch of the Rising Women on the Row event to salute up-and-coming women who have made substantial contributions to the Nashville music industry early in their careers.

This year’s honorees will be feted at a sit-down breakfast and awards ceremony set for Friday, March 16, 2012 at 8:30 a.m. at Maggiano’s.

Nominations are closed and MusicRow is in the process of selecting Nashville’s top women who are fast becoming visionary leaders in the music industry. This year’s honorees will be revealed by MusicRow prior to the March 16 awards breakfast. In addition, the honorees will receive a congratulatory plaque of recognition and be featured in the Rising Women on the Row event program.

“MusicRow’s Rising Women on the Row is a unique opportunity to acknowledge and profile some of the women in the music industry that are quickly making a name for themselves with contributions early in their careers,” says Publisher/Owner Sherod Robertson. “MusicRow often features talented new artists and songwriters, and this event gives us the opportunity to do the same for the talented women professionals who are quickly rising in our industry.”

The Rising Women on the Row breakfast joins other annual events hosted by MusicRow, including the CRS Meet & Greet and CountryBreakout Awards on Feb. 21, and the reader-voted MusicRow Awards ceremony in June.
