Sunday Spotlight with Cedar Atlas Presented by Southbound Tequila

The Bluebird Cafe’s Sunday Spotlight series shines on up-and-coming bands, and this edition features Cedar Atlas, a folk collective of four songwriters from Minneapolis and New York. The group—Jared Cavazos, Kata Fried, Patrick Irwin, and Zak Walker-Kahne—blends their diverse backgrounds into original music that explores a wide sonic terrain, from heartfelt ballads to playful genre-bending tunes.

Attendees can expect an intimate one-hour performance focused solely on Cedar Atlas, a departure from the venue’s typical in-the-round format. The cozy setting includes 18 tables, 8 bar seats, and church pew seating, with some pews available on a first-come, first-served basis. It’s a rare chance to catch a rising act in one of Nashville’s most iconic listening rooms.
