Kyle Cox, Abigail Flowers & Tabitha Meeks: Ready for Christmas!
6:00pm-8:15pm central, $18 at the door
Join three of Nashville's most unique songwriters for an evening of original music and Christmas classics. Featuring Kyle Cox, Abigail Flowers, and Tabitha Meeks.
Tabitha Meeks
Tabitha’s retro and quirky songwriting is a combination of her love of folk, classical and jazz. The music she plays and writes is often compared to Norah Jones, Nancy Sinatra, and Regina Spektor. Originally from Florida, she’s taken Nashville by storm since 2020 and can be found playing all around Nashville with her jazz/pop trio and heard in many TV shows on Streaming services like Netflix, MTV, Peacock, Paramount +, CBS, etc, Hallmark and more.
Known for her retro pop throwback tune "Ready For Christmas", which amassed over a 1 billion listens through social media posts in Christmas 2024, she’s rapidly growing a fan base; her recent single “Girl of the Hour” was placed on the Spotify Editorial Playlist “Retro Pop” in January 2025.

This sunnier sound marks a shift in tone from his previous albums tending to evoke scenes of ducking into a New York City jazz club during the city’s colder months. Listen Up! creates a blend that feels both nostalgic and new, reminiscent of a street band you’d stumble upon during a leisurely stroll through the French Quarter, or along the river Seine on a lively Summer afternoon
Abigail Flowers

Known as “The Teacha”, Regi Wooten is one of the most innovative, talented and dynamic musicians around the scene, and has pushed the boundaries of jazz, funk, soul, R&B, rock, and even bluegrass to some of the most extreme musical limits. From picking, slapping, strumming, thumping, and tapping to some of the most ear bending advanced chords you’ll hear on any instrument, Regi has earned world-wide notoriety and comparisons to other innovators such as Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa and Chuck Berry. Perfecting, creating and discovering new techniques and jazz theory while incorporating and layering into strong funk grooves for keen listeners to uncover and pick up on is one of his many notable fortes.
At only nine years old Regi started teaching his younger brother Victor Wooten bass guitar and Joseph Wooten keyboards, and soon the Wooten Brothers Band was formed featuring; Regi on ukelele, Roy on drums, Rudy on Saxophone, Joe on Keys and Victor on bass. Regi was ten years old at the time, Roy was nine, Rudy was eight, Joseph was five and Victor was two. The rest, as they say, is Musical History.
Assembling a cast of Nashville's best, Regi Wooten and Friends dig deep into the roots of funk, jazz, blues, rock, and soul. You never know who might jump on stage! Don't miss a beat!
