SOURCE, along with Nashville’s music community, will celebrate the careers of seven special women at the 2013 SOURCE Awards, taking place at Musician’s Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville on Tuesday, September 24, 2013.
Founded in 1991, SOURCE is a nonprofit organization supporting women executives and professionals who work in all facets of the Nashville music industry. In 2003, the annual SOURCE Awards were established to pay respect to and honor the women who helped develop and build upon the foundation of the music industry in Nashville. SOURCE also pays tribute to women who presently make major contributions with their work in the industry.
For the 11th annual awards ceremony, SOURCE has selected the following women to recognize: Bebe Evans (Charlie Daniels Band, Inc.), Bonnie Garner (Rothbaum Garner, Columbia Records, Dick Cavett Show), Gerrie McDowell (Gerrieco, Curb, Capitol and Mercury Records), Debi Fleischer-Robin (Fleischer-Robin Enterprises, Columbia/Sony Records, Crystal Gayle), Paula Szeigis (Charlie Daniels Band, Inc.), Sarah Trahern (Great American Country, TNN, C-Span), plus a posthumous recognition for Donna Hilley (Sony/ATV Publishing).
