Girl power

Under threatening skies, one Rae shined brightly at Main Street Live Friday night as Rae Radick presented “Iconic Women of Music.”

With powerful vocals and multiple costume changes, Radick channeled many top female singers with hits from Dolly Parton, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Gloria Gaynor, Madonna, Shania Twain, Taylor Swift and many more.

The show was cut short by intensifying rain just as intermission began, prompting the band to make the call out of concern for their equipment.

Nevertheless, Main Street McMinnville organizers were thrilled with the crowd and with Radick’s performance.

“The turnout was really good, and we hate that we couldn’t see the rest of the show,” Main Street McMinnville Executive Director Hannah Cowan Jones said. “We still got to see a lot of costume changes, and she really brought the energy. We were happy to add HOTG to our lineup of vendors tonight and we are hoping to have them back next year for the full schedule.”

The 2026 Main Street Live concert series schedule wraps up next Friday with Knights of Queen - A Queen Tribute. In case of rain, the Park Theater will serve as a backup option.

Main Street Live is sponsored by Main Street Media, Security Federal Savings Bank, Bridgestone, McMinnville Electric System, Law Offices of Galligan & Newman, Warren County, City of McMinnville, Middle Tennessee Natural Gas Utility District, Hale & Hines Nursery, Citizens Tri-County Bank and Hoover & Son Insurance.
