May We All takes you to Harmony, Tennessee, "the town that sings", where music used to flow through every part of town like the water supply, but lately hope is drying up. Two years ago, local sensation Jenna Coates (Bligh Voth) left Harmony to pursue her dreams of stardom in Nashville, her family and friends saw nothing but success for her. But Jenna never finds her hit and returns home, without a record deal or a dime to spare, only to discover that Harmony has also fallen on hard times. Now Jenna will need to face the music, reconnect with those she loved and make peace with her past to save herself and the small town she loves.

This show is filled with a host of characters that feel like family and features an authentic country score of songs by Florida Georgia Line, Kenny Chesney, Miranda Lambert, Dolly Parton, Little Big Town, Old Dominion, Brooks & Dunn, Chris Stapleton, Kacey Musgraves, Keith Urban, and many more.
