Acclaimed wedding & special event musician in Tennessee

Kathryn Rose Wood is a live musician with vocal and guitar in Nashville TN who performs for wedding ceremonies and private parties in Tennessee

Known for emotive performances and a deeply personal approach to live music, I get most excited when using music to tell your story. Whether that’s through an intimate acoustic set to a dynamic Top 40-style performance, I curate unforgettable musical experiences to soundtrack your wedding, private party, or special event throughout Tennessee, Kentucky, and the Southeast. There’s no genre too niche or lyric too long to keep me from giving your listeners a moment to remember.

You want to elevate your celebration with musical magic to remember forever.

With national praise from the likes of American Songwriter Magazine, Americana UK, and mental health organizations like To Write Love on Her Arms and NAMI, I don’t just play - I connect with your musical heart. Offering customized live music for every aspect of your event - from the ceremony to the first dance, cocktail hour to going away party, surprise proposal to holiday get-down - I bring people-first energy to my performances. Spanning genres of soul, pop, jazz, RnB, country, folk, and even some rock n’ roll, I create a custom blend of music that’s both familiar, yet unique to keep your attendees tuned-in.

You’ll hire me for your
Tennessee party’s music because…

You believe in:

Having every ounce of music tailored your event’s vibe - whether it’s sentimental guitar-only fingerstyle performances, the velvet notes of a sung jazz standard, or a lively trio set to get your partygoers on their feet.

You value:

Deep emotional intelligence, which you’ll receive thanks to my professional training both as a musician, and as a board-certified music therapist of 15+ years who has spent time serenading every walk of life.

You’re not about:

Hiring a musician who only wants to self-promote at your party! This is your time, and your time alone - and you want the 100+ song, genre-spanning setlist I perform to help soundtrack your party exactly as you’d like.

Let’s Make Your Moment Sound Incredible

For exceptional heartfelt music to soundtrack your wedding, special event, surprise proposal, holiday party, backyard barbecue, or whatever you want to bring some musical spice to - I’m your Tennessee musician!
