Local singer/songwriter gives concert for a cause Dec. 21

Local songwriter Mackenzie Leigh Wilson, fresh off of performances at the Curb Café and the Hard Rock Café in Nashville, will host a holiday concert to benefit the Open Door of Haywood County.

The concert will begin at 7 p.m. on Dec. 21 in the Venue at Long’s Chapel United Methodist Church. The concert will feature Wilson as well as other local and Nashville musicians, performing a mixture of original and seasonal music.

Wilson, a graduate of Tuscola High School, is now pursuing her songwriting dreams in Nashville. She attends Belmont University and is a songwriting major. The concert will benefit Open Door, a ministry that serves the poor and homeless of Haywood County.

“I am excited to sing my music, and some of my holiday favorites back in my hometown, all benefiting a great cause,” Wilson said.
