Clare Cunningham to Perform in Nashville: From Grand Ole Opry to Global Spotlight

NASHVILLE, TN — Irish-born powerhouse Clare Cunningham is set to light up the stage once again in Music City, bringing her blend of inspirational storytelling, Americana flair, and soaring vocals to an eagerly awaited live event. The independent singer-songwriter has become one of the most talked-about new names in country and gospel music — and now fans in Nashville have a chance to experience her unmatched presence in person.

From Europe to the Grand Ole Opry

Clare’s career took off long before her move to the U.S. in 2018, when she was the frontwoman of the all-female Swedish rock band Thundermother, signed to Warner Music Sweden. That band charted across Europe and shared stages with legends like Motörhead, Halestorm, and Zakk Wylde.

Since going solo, she’s carved out a new path rooted in Americana, worship, and mental health awareness. In March 2023, she made her Grand Ole Opry debut, where she performed alongside her childhood idol Garth Brooks and was invited by Steve Earle to duet on his hit “Galway Girl.”

Award-Winning Artist on a Global Rise

Cunningham’s recent achievements speak volumes about her versatility and impact:

• Nine nominations at the 2025 Red Carpet Awards Show in Europe
• 2025 World Entertainment Awards nominee for “Americana Album of the Year”
• 2024 Entertainer of the Year at the Josie Music Awards
• Inspirational Country Music Awards nominee for “New Artist of the Year”
• 2023 World Entertainment Award winner for “Best New Artist” and “Best Christian Song”

Her worship-focused album Helping Hand has won acclaim at international film festivals, cementing her influence beyond just the stage.

Industry Legends Are Taking Notice

Her voice — described as both soulful and explosive — has drawn praise from music veterans and icons alike:

“Clare has such a tremendous voice. She sings passion and feeling.” – Steve Cropper
“Girl, you can sing. What a powerful voice.” – Lzzy Hale (Halestorm)
“Phenomenal! Blown away.” – Gary Chapman
“You are the real deal.” – Livingston Taylor

From Phil Campbell of Motörhead to Opry stars like Jeannie Seely, Clare has earned respect across genres and generations.
