Get ready for #hotchickenandhits

It was a crazy idea from the start, and that was before I knew how damn hard it is to coordinate the logistics of a show! Aside from the inevitable wild cards of a LIVE broadcast to the world… I can’t wait.

In the tradition of Spicy Interviews, Hot Ones, and all those years of watching my radio friends talk celebrities into eating ghost peppers during an interview, I thought…”but I haven’t seen any of them try to sing.” I also thought:

“Wouldn’t it be interesting if we left it up to the audience to decide how HOT it will get.”

I made a list of the artists I knew would be the most-fun in a crazy environment, and started reaching out. Aside from a couple scheduling conflicts, they basically all said “Yes” (or “Oh my god…ok, I’ll just do it”)

Here’s what they agreed to, and what is kicking off with EVENT #1 scheduled for this Tuesday, June 8th.

June 8th - LIVE FROM NASHVILLE - Charles Esten, Canaan Smith, Lindsay Ell, Fancy Hagood. A wild night to benefit Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

Here’s the breakdown of what one of Nashville’s favorite stars called

“Ty’s Fiery Fowl Fundraiser” - Charles Esten

Our performers will play live from Music City’s 12/30 Club at the amazing new experience at 5th + Broad. They will play their biggest hits, but YOU have the chance to make it even more challenging, by donating to our cause.

Throughout the round, you can to donate to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (for more on why I am so passionate about their mission, click here).

As we reach fundraising milestones, our performers will be asked to stuff their faces with Nashville’s infamous Hot Chicken. The more money raised…the hotter the chicken!

How hot will it get? That’s up to you! 🔥🥵

WARNING: I love spicy hot foods, and the first time I tried Hot Chicken in Nashville…I lost my voice for five minutes. Its FIRE!
