Cirque Partners With UMG Nashville For A New Country-Music Themed Show

Cirque Partners With UMG Nashville For A New Country-Music Themed Show
461 0

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Canadian entertainment company Cirque du Soleil and Universal Music Group Nashville are teaming up for Songblazers, a new country-themed jukebox show that mines both classic and modern American country music.

The show, which tells the story of two artists on the make in the realm of country music, debuts in Nashville in July 2024 and will then launch a tour of North America later this year.

As part of the show, Cirque is collaborating with Sam Williams, a contemporary country artist, grandson of country pioneer Hank Williams, and the son of outlaw legend Hank Jr, for the creation of an original song.

“The title idea came to me pretty easily after becoming acquainted with Cirque du Soleil,” says Williams. “Where I come from, most people don’t get to go to the circus. We go to county fairs and carnivals, and the carnival in a small town is filled with joy, excitement, mystery, euphoria, you name it. That feeling is one you always remember, and I think the roller coaster of emotions lines up with what you want to feel seeing such an incredibly beautiful production such as Cirque’s.”
