about Erin McLendon’s music on the move
Created and hosted by rising Americana/country artist Erin McLendon, Music On The Move (formerly Women on Fire) serves as a pivotal platform for local female musicians and entrepreneurs to share their talents.
Backed by all female band members, event planners, and vendors, the quarterly event has featured artists like Katie Basden, Lexi Larsen, Rachele Lynae, April Kry, Brinn Black, Jenny Teator, and Bee Taylor.
McLendon, the driving force behind Music On The Move, was inspired by all of the talented women she works with that don’t get enough credit in Nashville. “I wanted to create a collaborative space that was not just country or pop; I wanted to have something that is open to all genres. Not only is this a regularly occurring event, it also showcases female owned & operated businesses in town who are working just as hard to ‘make it’ as the musicians on stage,” McLendon says.
It’s fitting that such a dynamic event would get it’s start at one of Nashville’s most iconic venues, the Exit/In and earn a monthly residency at the equally iconic, Marathon Music Works. With both venues’ history of defying stereotypes and hosting a wide variety of artists, Erin McLendon’s Music On The Move fits perfectly in its spirited array of entertainment.

“When this amazing opportunity was brought to my attention, I was immediately interested and excited to be apart of an all female women empowering event. It was everything I had hoped for. Not only did I get to play with such incredible talented female musicians and share the stage with other amazing female artists, but I got to make new friends who are driven, motivated and know exactly who they are and what they want to say in their music. These women were definitely on fire. Honored to be apart of such a amazing night!”

“It's a privilege to work with Erin on [Music On the Move]. Each event introduces us to friendly, determined, intelligent business women that are interested in growing their brand while supporting others. You find these women behind their booths, on the stage, in the crowd - everyone involved is someone who should be in your network. We've gained clients and made friends. What more could you ask from an event?”

“[Music On The Move] is a force to be reckoned with! They have helped me to reach people I wouldn’t have normally reached just through social media promotion and pop up shops. Thank you for giving us female artists the platform we need to lift each other up and to showcase our art! This Strange Ranger can not wait for the next one! THANK YOU FOR YOUR MAGIC AND GENIUS ERIN!”
