Nashville Comes to Cochrane Lion's Club
2025-10-03 18:00 - 22:00 | The Lions Event Centre, 109 5th Avenue, Cochrane, Alberta, Canada
​Join Us for an Unforgettable Night of Stories & Songs
​Step into something truly special as Backyard Music Co. brings the soul of Nashville straight to your community on Friday, Oct 3rd. Curated by Billboard-charting artist Scotty James, this intimate “listening room” experience isn’t just a concert—it’s a rare chance to get up close with the songwriters behind the music you love.
​You’ll hear two to three award-winning or emerging songwriters from Nashville, performing their original songs acoustically in a stripped-down, storytelling format. Between songs, the artists will share the real, often emotional or humorous stories behind their lyrics—creating a powerful connection between the music, the artist, and the audience.
​This isn’t your average show. It’s an immersive, Nashville-style writers round designed for true music lovers—a quiet, focused space where the audience is part of the experience.
​What to Expect:

​A handpicked lineup of top-tier Nashville songwriters with songs featured on major playlists and radio
​Acoustic performances in a cozy, intimate setting—whether it’s a backyard, barn, or boutique venue
​Personal storytelling that gives insight into the songwriting process and the heart behind the music
​Cocktails and curated food options available on site
​Exclusive merch and artist meet-and-greets
​A chance to connect with neighbors, friends, and artists in a warm, welcoming atmosphere

​This is more than a concert—it’s a connection point, a community gathering, and a window into the beating heart of Nashville’s songwriting scene.
​Space is limited. Grab your spot early and experience what music is truly meant to feel like.
​Host Notes: Why not make your evening complete by joining us for dinner before the show? We are offering a delicious pre-show dinner of some of the best, mouth watering BBQ items from The Butchery Block with Smoked Brisket, Smoked Pulled Pork, Texas Hot Link Sausage, Coleslaw, Baked Beans and Cornbread too! Follow the link in your confirmation email to grab your dinner tickets!
