ACM Lifting Lives Music Camp is in session this week in Nashville, where campers from around the country come for music enrichment through performance and education. The camp, a partnership between ACM Lifting Lives and Vanderbilt Kennedy Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities, has the dual purpose of studying campers with Williams syndrome and other disabilities.

On Monday (6/18), Brett Eldredge and David Lee Murphy lead campers in a songwriting session, creating “We’re Having a Party,” an original song based on campers’ personal experiences and inspirations. Yesterday Luke Bryan visited the campers during their recording session, where they recorded “We’re Having a Party” with producer Paul Worley. Later that day, Lauren Alaina dropped by and participated in a karaoke event at Winner’s with the campers. Today (6/21) they are scheduled for a campsite cookout with Jana Kramer, followed tomorrow by a performance with Big & Rich at the Grand Ole Opry.
