St. Jude Rock ‘N’ Roll Running Series Nashville Announces Musical Lineup

St. Jude Rock ‘n’ Roll Running Series Nashville has announced the musical guests scheduled to appear during the upcoming 2023 race week festivities. From the Health & Fitness Expo, along the course and to the race finish line at Nissan Stadium, the lineup will showcase all forms of music for the participants, guests and spectators to celebrate race week in Music City, taking place April 22-23 with registration still available.

More music and running are woven throughout the fabric of Rock ‘n’ Roll Nashville as the event will showcase some of the finest singer-songwriters throughout the weekend. Earlier this year, Runaway June was confirmed as the 2023 Encore Entertainment for the post-race concert on Saturday, April 22, 2023, from 10:30 a.m.-12 p.m. at the finish line near Victory Way outside of Nissan Stadium.

Nashville has long been a favorite stop on the running series tour, welcoming global visitors amidst a strong hometown contingent who know how to have a good time. Participants will experience everything that Music City has to offer, including a legendary running tour of Nashville’s most famous locations such as Broadway, Music Row, The Gulch, 12 South, Nissan Stadium, and much more.

In addition, PGMG recording artists Greg Pratt and Angie Rey will add their country talents to the post-race Encore Entertainment festivities. Pratt and his band will perform from 7:30 until 10:30 a.m, and Rey and her band will take the stage from 12:30-2:30 p.m. Rey will also sing the National Anthem at both start lines on race day with the 5K/10K at 6:25 a.m. and the marathon and half marathon at 7:15 a.m.

The St. Jude Rock ‘n’ Roll Rock Running Series Nashville Health & Fitness Expo will be held at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium and the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum. Special performances by Music City talents such as Jillian Cardarelli, Golden West, Lance Carpenter, Joe Noto, and Adam Warner will highlight the music stage at the free and open-to-the-public expo on Thursday, April 20 as well as Friday, April 21.
