All About Arianna

A promising future has begun for Nashville-based pop-country artist and songwriter Arianna Pappas. Her latest single "Seasons," the winner of a 2024 American Songwriter Magazine lyric contest, was released to all music platforms in June 2025. The breakup ballad takes listeners on a cinematic journey of love and loss. Soaring vocals and swelling instrumentals provoke emotional imagery through the seasons of a relationship. Her previous releases include the powerful anthem “Daddy’s Dime,” carefree summer love tune “Every Mile” (37k+ streams on Spotify), and breakup bop “Space.” She has current and upcoming songwriter cuts with artists Brooks Herring, Jillian Shelver, and J4.

Pappas is an east coast native, but she got to Nashville as fast as she could. Singing just about since the day she could talk, she has successfully nurtured a soulful, rock-infused timbre with a tinge of country heart. Many have compared her to the likes of Stevie Nicks and Florence Welch. Pappas’  journey brought her to Nashville’s own Belmont University in 2020 to study songwriting. As a writer, she has a unique and defining sound, inspired by storytellers like Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift. Her songs challenge the pop-country landscape by merging infectious melodies, compelling stories, and clever metaphors.

Aside from her original music, Pappas has built up an impressive resumé performing The National Anthem at 130+ sporting events. Her biggest performances so far have been for the MLB Cleveland Guardians, the Tennessee Titans Foundation, and Vanderbilt University Baseball.
