About Scruffy City Sings

Join us each summer for a cabaret-style fundraising series!

Scruffy City Sings is a fundraiser the only way we know how: giving y'all a great evening of entertainment, building towards providing bigger and better paid artist opportunities.  

Each month is completely different: new performers, new musicians, a new guest artist, and a new style. From jazz standards to disco hits, musical theatre to country western, join some of Knoxville's best live performers for a showcase of local vocal talent. All proceeds will go towards First Take Co.'s artist pay fund for our upcoming season.
