Writers Night hosted by Steve Goodie

Every Sunday at The Bluebird Cafe, emerging songwriters take the stage to share their original music in an intimate setting designed to nurture their craft. This long-running weekly event features performers who've earned their slot through a formal audition process, each playing a three-song set. Local comedian and songwriter Steve Goodie hosts the evening, bringing warmth and personality to the proceedings. Best for families with older kids and teens who appreciate live music and songwriting, this is a chance to experience raw talent in Nashville's legendary listening room. The great news for your wallet: tickets are free, with only minimal processing fees. Just note that there's a $15 per-person food or drink minimum once you're there. You can reserve a specific seat at one of the tables, bar, or first-come-first-served pew seating. If your plans change, cancellations made 48 hours or more before showtime get a full refund (minus fees). For questions or to cancel, reach out to the cafe at info@bluebirdcafe.com or 615-383-1461 (Monday–Friday, 12–4 p.m.).
