Jelly Roll makes appearance at Nashville Predators game vs St. Louis Blues
Nashville-native singer and rap artist Jelly Roll made an appearance at the Nashville Predators' game against the St. Louis Blues at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday. With 1:39 left in the first period, the Predators' public address announcer announced Jelly Roll was in attendance, watching from the suite level. The singer then stood and gave a thankful "heart" hand-signal to the crowd. Jelly Roll's appearance came as no surprise — the first 10,000 fans in attendance were given a Jelly Roll bobblehead as part of Nashville's Music City Hockey bobblehead series. The 40-year-old singer, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, grew up in the Antioch area in Nashville. After starting his music career in 2003, he saw a sharp rise in the music industry in 2022 with his hit single, "Son of a Sinner." In January, Jelly Roll opened Goodnight Nashville, a five-story honky tonk on Broadway. Located at 209 Broadway between Kid Rock's Big Honky Tonk and Bootleggers, the 27,000 square-foot space is the first Lower Broadway celebrity-owned bar from a Nashville native.
