Stay;Fest is a one day, multi-genre festival happening this Saturday (Sept 13) promotes mental health resources in the Middle Tennessee area through music with the goal to help build community and ending the stigma of getting help.
Rebekah Cole, event promoter for RAC Books Nashville, says she's struggled with mental health since she was a kid and music has always been a safe refuge. She knew she wanted to bring the two together, but it wasn't a one person thing. As soon as she met Zhaklina Spencer, founder of Mental Health Songwriter Nights in Nashville, it all came together in a perfect marriage.
