Pop punk concert featuring Taylor Acorn, Sleep Theory, Holding Absence and Arm's Length as part of the Ceremony Festival 2026.
Taylor Acorn plays Cannery Hall on Saturday, October 17, as part of Ceremony Festival 2026. She's not alone on the bill: Sleep Theory, Holding Absence, and Arm's Length are all on the lineup, so it's a full day of music rather than a single act. The show starts at 11 AM, which puts it in the middle of the day instead of the usual late-night slot.
Acorn comes from Wellsboro, in north central Pennsylvania, and grew up immersed in the pop punk and pop rock scene of the early 1990s and 2000s. In 2014, she dropped out of Kutztown University to pursue music full-time, and she moved to Nashville in 2017. Through releases like Psycho, Certified Depressant, and Shapeshifting, she's built a following in the pop punk community by tackling difficult subjects including mental health and sharing her own personal struggles. She describes her goal as giving her listeners a space where they can feel free, vulnerable, and heard.

The show is part of Ceremony Festival 2026, which returns to Cannery Hall as the peak of Rock Week in Nashville. The festival spreads music across four indoor and outdoor stages, with live art by Visual Minds, a pop-up market by Nashville Punk Rock Flea Market, and on-site tattoos by Kind Tattoo. So if you're heading in for the music, there's plenty more to do around the grounds. The bill runs Taylor Acorn, Sleep Theory, Holding Absence, and Arm's Length, starting at 11 AM at Cannery Hall, 1 Cannery Row, Nashville, TN.
