Tennessee Theatre: Pass the Mic Series: The Black Opry Revue
Sun May 7, 7 PM
604 S Gay Street, Knoxville, TN 37902

Part of the Tennessee Theatre’s Pass the Mic series, Black Opry Revue will feature Adia Victoria, Buffalo Nichols, and War and Pierce. The Black Opry is a home for Black artists and fans of country, blues, folk, and Americana music. We invite you to discover, support, and enjoy the Black artists that make magic in this space. One of the most valuable aspects of country music is its versatility and diversity in sound. Country, blues, folk, and Americana music often overlap or weave together – these artists explore all of those sounds and intersections. The Black Opry Revue showcases the diversity in sound and stories that Black artists offer to these genres.

Through a series of immersive arts events, the Tennessee Theatre strives to provide a stage for artists from marginalized and underserved communities to share their art with the community, featuring a concert/performance, visual art displays, discussions and panels focusing on issues that are important to the performing artists, and educational opportunities, engaging the community and providing a space for audiences and artists to better understand one another.

Open to students outside of Knox County: YES
Advanced reservations required: NO
