Ten days after Tennessee was struck with devastating tornadoes, Old Crow Medicine Show wrote “Nashville Rising” a newly released tune that will raise money for The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee Emergency Response Fund.

“I love Nashville. I moved here right after the last tornado that really tore through this town and never thought we’d see another,” recalls Old Crow’s Ketch Secor. “I know most of us never thought we’d see anything like what this last month has been, whether in Music City or elsewhere around the world.  These are the dark times where music can really light the way, the times of immeasurable hardship where music can soothe a troubled soul. I wrote ‘Nashville Rising’ in the hopes that positivity, perseverance, and people power will be just as contagious as COVID-19.” 

The video recording of “Nashville Rising” features the members of Old Crow – Secor, Morgan Jahnig, Cory Younts, Joe Andrews, Robert Price, Charlie Worsham, and Jerry Pentecost – as well as guests Molly Tuttle (guitar and vocals), Shelly Colvin (harp and vocals) and Skylar Wilson (vibes).
