NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The stars were shining bright on Sunday as the Country Music Awards week started in Downtown Nashville!
On Sunday, artists, songwriters, producers, publishers and everyone across the industry came together for the annual SESAC Awards.
Talk of the Town's Heather Mathis and Cole Johnston show us all of the fun from the red carpet!

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
