Wine, Women & Song
Jul 12, 2015
Gretchen Peters, Matraca Berg, and Suzy Bogguss will unite during "Wine, Women & Song" at The Listening Room in Nashville on Thursday, July 23rd for a special fundraiser to benefit Music & Memory. Songwriter Lori McKenna will perform an acoustic set to open the show beginning at 7p (CT). The first-ever Nashville Music & Memory event will benefit the non-profit organization that brings personalized music into the lives of the elderly or infirm through digital music technology, vastly improving their quality of life. The group is asking for donations of iPods, iPhones, and iTunes Gift Cards that will be wiped clean and loaded with personalized playlists for individual patients. The organization trains nursing home staff and other elder care professionals and family caregivers on how to create and provide the personalized playlists utilizing the donated technology to enable those struggling with Alzheimer's, dementia, and other cognitive and physical challenges to reconnect with the world through music-triggered memories.
