BMI Plug & Play continued its monthly showcase on Wednesday, August 5, with rising songwriters Carver Jones, Datura, Fairhazel and The Sewing Club at The Basement in Nashville. Emceed by BMI’s Claire Dodelin and sponsored by Olé Cocktail Co. and Lone Star Beer, the free show packed industry professionals and music fans into the Music City venue for high-energy, genre-blending performances from emerging BMI creators.

Echoing the spirit of BMI Buzz at The Basement (2008–2018), which helped launch the careers of artists like Russell Dickerson, Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris and Caitlyn Smith, the BMI Plug & Play series continues to champion the next generation of talent in the earliest stages of their careers. BMI Plug & Play will return to The Basement on September 2 with a lineup to be announced.
