September 27, 2026 at the Exit/In

Icon for Hire brought their Scripted 15th Anniversary Tour to Nashville for a night celebrating the album that helped define their sound and connect them with fans over that last decade and a half. To mark the milestone, the band performed Scripted from front to back, giving longtime listeners the chance to experience the record in its entirety, live on stage.

Opening the evening was Cuddle Death, setting the tone for a night full of energy and heavy sounds. Next up was Nashville local Maiasaura, followed by Lauren Babic, each bringing their own personality and power to the stage. With an entirely female-fronted lineup, the evening carried a special energy from start to finish. Each act brought something unique to the bill, creating a night that celebrated not only the music but also the women commanding the stage.

By the time Icon for Hire took over, the anticipation was high. Celebrating 15 years of Scripted was more than a trip down memory lane, it was a chance to revisit an album that continues to resonate with fans. Hearing the record performed front to back made the Nashville stop feel like a celebration of the album’s lasting impact, the band’s journey, and the community that has grown alongside their music. Fifteen years later, Scripted still has something to say, and Nashville was ready to sing along.
