CLARKSVILLE, TN – Clarksville Power of Words (CPW), the beloved open-mic live performance event showcasing poets, singers, rappers, musicians, comedians, and spoken word artists from across middle Tennessee, is thrilled to announce its fourth anniversary celebration. The anniversary takes place during the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend, 2026, marking the program’s return and CPW’s relocation to Clarksville’s Eggs Up Grill (970 Tiny Town Rd, Suite A-B).

The anniversary event will take place on Saturday, January 17, with doors opening at 6:30 PM and the show starting at 7 PM. Admission is $20 for fans and $15 for performing artists, with VIP booths available for purchase online at powerofwords931.com.

Army veteran J.A.K. (Justified & Ambitious King) Danger founded CPW in January 2022 with support from poet Komplex Simplicity, CPW’s director of operations. The monthly event has provided a platform for artists to hone their craft, grow their artistry, and deliver performances for the Clarksville and surrounding community. After CPW paused operations for a few months to regroup and relocate, the show will make a comeback, with January 2026 signifying the official return of founder J.A.K. Danger to the stage.

The dynamic duo of Simplicity and Epifany will host, with J.A.K. Danger presenting.

“Clarksville Power of Words has always been about empowering artists and bringing people together through the transformative power of words and performance,” said J.A.K. Danger, CPW founder. “This fourth anniversary is not just a milestone – it’s a rebirth. We’re excited to return stronger than ever and continue providing a space where talent thrives and audiences are inspired.”

“Power of Words fosters a sense of community and family; people come out and get inspired by what they see, so they can feel free to share their truth on stage,” said Simplicity.

CPW welcomes performers and attendees from throughout middle Tennessee, fostering an inclusive environment that highlights the rich artistic talent in the region.
