It has been a tough few weeks for Nashville, for the country, and for the world. Small businesses are struggling to stay afloat, people are trying to rebuild their homes, many Americans are losing their jobs, and we are all forced to stay in as we fight through this pandemic. Despite all this turmoil, beauty and kindness have remained.

We decided to flip the script and shine our spotlight, while we can, on some of the kindness that we have witnessed from others because Kindness Isn’t Canceled. To grab your exclusive shirt, click here.

We would be remiss if we did not take a moment to spotlight some of the amazing essential workers, who we are so thankful for during these times. Today, we specifically would like to thank all the nurses and the medical professionals, who have dedicated their lives to keeping us healthy and safe.

For the past couple of weeks, nurses from other parts of New York State and other states in the country have come out in droves to New York City and the surrounding areas to lend their services to our beautiful city in order to fight this pandemic. Nurses from North Carolina, Florida, and many other states have left their own families and loved ones behind with a will to save lives.

These nurses are truly putting themselves in what has been described as a “war zone” for the betterment of us. It’s truly an incredible act of courage and selflessness that we cannot fully express our gratitude for. We thank them for their kindness.

Today we have a story for all those animal lovers out there. Since we are all essentially stuck at home for the near future, New Yorkers turned out in droves earlier last month to support a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. Animal shelters across the United States have been reporting an increase of people readily available and eager to foster a dog, during this time; however, New York City really came through.

When the Animal Care Centers of NYC put out a call for applications to its fostering program, which had 200 slots available, over 2000 New Yorkers applied. It is believed that because many of us are working from home now or unfortunately unable to work, we are seeking a furry companion to get us through this time. We might be providing a dog with a home, but as always, they are providing us humans with the friendship and kindness we need during this time of isolation.

According to Foster Dogs INC., they are now focusing their efforts on continuing to support the foster parents and dogs, during this crisis. If you wish to donate to this worthy cause, click here, and visit their website at fosterdogsnyc.com

Whiskey Jam, a popular celebration of music that takes place in Nashville’s midtown area every Monday and Thursday night, is not letting the effects of COVID-19 keep them from bringing people together through the power of music. After launching nine years ago, Whiskey Jam has hosted household names like Thomas Rhett, Luke Combs, and Dierks Bentley, as well as rising artists, breaking into the country music scene.

Since going out is no longer an option, and Whiskey Jam has to be postponed, the creators came up with a brilliant idea, Enter: “Risky Jam.”

Hosted by Whiskey Jam’s Founder, Ward Guenther, Risky Jam is a live-streaming event that happens via Instagram every Monday and Thursday night. The interactive show brings together various country artists video-calling into the show, chatting with Ward about how they’re navigating life in this current situation, what they’re working on and more. Each artist plays some music and both the host and musical guest will often take to the comments, calling out fans, answering questions and taking requests.

The lively show brings country artists across the genre and their music straight to your screen, enabling fans across the world to tune in and get a sneak peek of just how special Whiskey Jam and it’s “Jam Fam” is. Music brings people together, and this is the perfect event to remember that.

Previously, the platform has hosted the likes of Lee Brice, Riley Green, Lauren Alaina, among others, but this week there will be a special tribute to the late and great, Joe Diffie. In a special titled ‘Diffie Jam,’ stars like Travis Denning and Chris Lane will pay tribute to the legendary country musician. The live event starts tonight, Tuesday, March 31st at 9PM EST on the @whiskeyjam Instagram.

A silver lining of all this chaos and confusion has come in the form of music and our access to it, so we hope you enjoy this story, as much as we enjoyed sharing it. We want to thank Whiskey Jam and it’s creators for working so hard to continue to lift our spirits along with so many fans across the world through music.
