Join Us For Our Annual Signature Fundraising Event

Every year Vantage Point hosts a rare opportunity to be a part of an intimate dinner and performance with Nashville Hall of Fame songwriters who tell the stories behind their famous songs and play their top singles. Music City Meets the Holy City happens in Charleston, SC and our Music City Meets the Lowcountry happens in Bluffton, SC each November the week of Veteran’s Day. 

Induction into the Nashville songwriters Hall of Fame is one of the nation’s highest songwriting achievements, since 1970, the Hall has enshrined some of the greatest writers ever to put words to music in Music City. This year, Pat Alger, Kent Blazy, and Gretchen Peters are coming from the Music City to the Holy City to assist Vantage Point Foundation in its mission to support our state’s post 9/11 veterans and spouses. Between them, they have written too many top 20 singles to list—but their most acclaimed tunes are noted below.
