Johnny Davis Motorsports is excited to announce a brand-new partnership with the nonprofit organization, Operation Song, for our race at Nashville Superspeedway. The race will be held this weekend on Saturday, June 29th, with live coverage on USA Network, Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
Operation Song is a Nashville-based 501(c)3 that pairs veterans with professional songwriters to turn their stories into song. During cathartic writing sessions, personal experiences of service become songs about bravery, camaraderie, heartbreak, and humor. Operation Song’s catalog of over 1,700 songs can be heard on the organization’s BandCamp page HERE.
“Operation Song’s mission really speaks to my heart. Letting veterans, active-duty military members, and their families share their stories through the power of song is really inspiring to me. Having many family members that served in the military, partnering with an organization like this really brings a great deal of pride into my heart,” says Smithley.
“Operation Song is thrilled to partner with Garrett Smithley and the JD Motorsports Team,” says Mike Byer, Operation Song’s Executive Director of Veteran Engagement. “We’re proud that Garrett will be representing us in front of this spirited, patriotic audience. We’re even more proud that Garrett has accepted Operation Song’s invitation to write with us as we work to turn the story of every veteran, active-duty military, and their families into song.”
