NewSong Music is honored to partner with the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. to present the 2017 NewSong Music Competition grand prize winner Crys Matthews at the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage.
“It is such an honor to be playing the prestigious Kennedy Center,” says Matthews of her upcoming performance. “There isn’t much that I get to write or call home to my mom about that makes her cheer the way she did the night I won the 2017 NewSong Music and Performance Competition, but this did it. To know I am getting to sing my songs on the same stage as so many of my songwriting heroes means so much to me. To be able sing a song inspired by our former First Lady Michelle Obama in our nation’s Capital will make the night that much sweeter for me, personally.”
Matthews’s performance is featured as part of the Kennedy Center’s free daily series on its Millennium Stage in the Grand Foyer. Watch the live webcast of her performance this Wednesday, August 22 at 6:00 PM EDT.
