THE AMERICANA MUSIC ASSOCIATION HAS TEAMED UP WITH TORONTO’S HORSESHOE TAVERN TO PRESENT A LIVE
MUSIC SERIES IN MARCH 2025 FEATURING A BLEND OF EMERGING AND ESTABLISHED AMERICANA ARTISTS
The Americana Music Association, the Nashville, Tennessee-based organization that puts on the renowned celebration of American roots music, Americanafest, is thrilled to announce a new live music series spanning the month of March in collaboration with Toronto’s iconic Horseshoe Tavern.
This exciting partnership will showcase some of the finest up-and-coming americana artists alongside established talents, offering fans an exclusive opportunity to experience live performances in one of the city’s most historic venues. Set to launch this March, the series will
feature a curated lineup of diverse americana acts, blending folk, country, blues, and rock influences into unforgettable live shows. The Association will sponsor various shows between March 1st – 31st. Tickets available HERE.
“The Horseshoe Tavern is a cultural landmark, not just as a blacksmith shop or a saloon, but especially as a destination for touring artists and the music we all love. Americanafest relies on independent music venues across Nashville, and many of the artists in this new series have performed at our event over the past few years. In addition, we are excited to partner with one of the best venues in Canada for discovering Americana music. What the Troubadour is to LA, The ‘Shoe’ is to Toronto, a home away from home.” – Jed Hilly, Executive Director of Americana Music Association.
“Americanafest has always been about celebrating and nurturing the spirit of Americana music, and I speak for everyone involved to say that we are beyond excited to bring this series here to Toronto. The fans have always been here, but it’s time to bring the acts,” said Charles Hacker, the thought leader of the series. “We are so proud to partner with the Americana Music Association to showcase these incredible artists taking over the Horseshoe Tavern this March.
From outlaw country to heartland blues, you can expect a month packed with top-tier Americana acts from across the continent!”, stated Ben Mol, the booker of the iconic venue.
