The Nashville Engineer Relief Fund and AES Nashville Section Present "Shine On" The Nashville Engineer Relief Fund (NERF) and AES Nashville Section announce "Shine On -- The Making of And We All Shine On: A Tribute to John Lennon from Music City" -- a free online event rediscovering the music created for the 2012 NERF fundraiser album helmed by Steve Marcantonio, longtime AES Nashville Section member and audio engineer for John Lennon and countless others. Set to take place on Tuesday, August 11, from 7:00 - 9:00pm CDT, the Zoom-based event will feature a live-streamed moderated discussion with three of the album's producers: Marcantonio, Nicole Cochran, and Sharon Corbitt, with special guests including long-time Lennon producer-engineer Jack Douglas and artist Bill Lloyd. In addition to delving into the album's inspiration and production along with tributes to John Lennon's songwriting, recording, and personal legacy, the album will be made available to those who wish to make a donation to NERF as it continues its outreach through these extraordinary times. Join in celebrating the Nashville audio community and examine an exemplary piece of cultural heritage. The event is sponsored by the Recording Academy Producers and Engineers Wing, in partnership with the AES Nashville Section, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the Nashville Engineer Relief Fund. And We All Shine On was put together by Marcantonio as a heartfelt tribute to John Lennon, and released originally in 2012 as a benefit tribute with all proceeds going to NERF. The album includes 10 handpicked favorites from Lennon's solo works, performed by some of Nashville's finest musicians utilizing several of Nashville's top studio facilities including Starstruck Studios, Ben's Studio, Blackbird, Sony Tree Studios, Ocean Way Nashville, and more. All proceeds from Shine On will go to NERF, the beneficiary of the beloved AudioMasters Nashville Benefit Golf Tournament and other community events that provide financial support to the ultimate beneficiaries -- Nashville audio engineers and their families in times of need. The event is made possible by support from the Producers and Engineers Wing of The Recording Academy -- a perennial supporter of the AudioMasters, the Audio Engineering Society, and the AES Nashville Section.
