The non-partisan nonprofit organization Freedom Forum has unveiled the lineup for its inaugural ‘Freely Fest’, taking place on April 8th at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, and streaming live globally.

The Killers, T-Pain, Dominic Fike, Janelle Monáe, and Avery Anna are all featured o the lineup for the festival, which celebrates the “power of music and our First Amendment freedoms.” The event blends performances with artist stories and interactive experiences to highlight free speech, aiming to make the First Amendment relevant by connecting it to popular culture, using music as a universal language for expression.

Freedom Forum has spent more than three decades working toward the organization’s vision of an America where everyone knows, values, and defends religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition.

Freedom Forum Chair and CEO Jan Neuharth said in a statement: “Freely Fest will shine a light on freedom of speech — a foundational right that belongs to us all and fuels the free expression that shapes our culture. Music tells the story of America. Every generation has its defining anthems. Melodies that bring us to our feet or move us to tears. Lyrics that capture moments of joy or reflect times of sorrow. Songs that have sparked change and fueled movements. All powered by the First Amendment.”
