Tin Pan South is NSAI's largest annual fundraising event held to support its mission of protecting the rights and future of the profession of songwriting. The festival has shared NSAI's purpose with nearly half a million fans worldwide to date, spreading awareness to more and more music enthusiasts year by year. As a way to give back and support another organization in need, each year, a local non-profit is selected by the festival as a partner and beneficiary. In the past, ticket proceeds from a single show raised donation funds, but for this year, all attendees will have the opportunity to donate to the worthy cause with any ticket purchase!
This year, the charity organization was carefully selected as it holds a special place for NSAI Board President, Lee Thomas Miller, and family, who suffered the loss of Miller's son Levi in 2025. The mission of ShowerUp, an organization originally founded in Nashville, TN, was extremely important to Levi, and the festival has chosen it in his honor. ShowerUp provides showers, laundry, hygiene neccessities, and personal care to those experiencing homelessness and those in need. Although founded in Nashville, the organization has grown to provide services in several additional cities and states since its founding in 2016. With any 2026 ticket purchase, buyers will have the opportunity to add a donation amount of their choosing to the purchase, to directly support ShowerUp and their mission of elevating dignity and igniting hope for individuals who are in need, whether unhoused, in shelters, or affected by disasters.
“ShowerUp is an incredible organization serving Nashville in a unique way. Through our son Levi's struggles with mental health he became burdened with the unhoused and once spoke of them as “unseen” the same way he felt “unseen”. ShowerUp is boots on the ground here at home and I love this opportunity for NSAI to showcase their work as part of this year's Tin Pan South festival.” - Lee Thomas Miller, NSAI Board President
