Wake Up Nashville 2013

I'm excited to announce that we just got word that this year's Wake Up Nashville  event will be held on July 21st, 2013. 

The past two year's this event has been held in September, but this year they have changed the date to fall on Summer Solstice: the LONGEST day of the year. 

Wake Up Nashville, a Singing and Songwriting Competition created to raise funds and awareness for Narcolepsy, is hosted by Wake Up Narcolepsy, Tabitha Crawford, Bob Saporiti, and many other generous sponsors.  

This year we are hoping to get more People With Narcolepsy to come out and enjoy the event.  

Wake Up Nashville 2012

On September the 21st, 2012 Robby and I had the honor of attending the second annual 'Wake Up Nashville' event in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee. 'Wake Up Nashville' is the first Singing and Songwriting Competition to raise money for Narcolepsy awareness and research.

In 2011, Robby and I attended the event and were invited to say a few words about Narcolepsy on stage. We were invited back as Guest Speakers and had the honor of talking about "Living with Narcolepsy" again this year.

Thank you to everyone involved in organizing such a SUCCESSFUL and FUN filled evening, and to the FABULOUS musicians for their involvement and for supporting the cause. I look forward to seeing everyone at Wake Up Nashville 2013!

See the below video of this year's event, videos of some of the AMAZING artists that participated in support of Narcolepsy, and photos from Wake Up Nashville 2011 and 2012.
