End of the Row Party
Over 350 of Nashville’s music industry elite joined Vanderbilt doctors, research scientists and local business leaders to raise money and awareness for the TJ Martell Foundation on the night of September 16th, 2010.  The songwriter event was hosted by Crownover, Tisinger behind their offices on Music Row and netted over $6000 in one night and featured hit writers, Tom Douglas, Radney Foster, Hillary Lindsey and Gordie Sampson.
 
“This phenomenal group of writers and artists donated 100% of their talents and services.  Our firm donated 100% of the party expenses, so 100% of every dollar that came in went straight to the Foundation—and better yet, we had a ball while everyone was able to deduct it!” said Derek Crownover.
