Song Suffragettes is a weekly writer's round held in Nashville, Tennessee featuring rotating female country artists.[1] Song Suffragettes is a collective of female singer-songwriters who stand together in the face of systemic gender-disparity in the music industry.[2] In 2018, Song Suffragettes was featured in Elle magazine.[3]
Each round features five female songwriters who perform three songs each; the show ends with a cover performed by all five women.[1] Song Suffragettes have grown to become the largest weekly sold out show at the Listening Room Cafe.[4] Founded by Todd Cassetty, the first show took place at 3rd & Lindsley Backstage on March 10, 2014. The round has since moved to The Listening Room Café, and shows are currently held every Monday night.[5] Since its founding, over 250 performers have played the show, 40 performers have received publishing deals and 16 performers have received record deals. Kelsea Ballerini played the second Song Suffragettes show on March 17, 2014, one year before her song "Love Me Like You Mean It" went #1.[6]
On occasion Song Suffragettes invites special guest artists to perform. Past special guests include Lauren Alaina, RaeLynn, Jessie James Decker, Lindsay Ell, Maddie Poppe, Cassadee Pope, Katelyn Tarver, Matraca Berg, Kelleigh Bannen, Kristen Kelly, Ruthie Collins, Deana Carter, Lauren Duski, Sarah Darling, and Cyndi Thomson.[7][8]
