Tucker Wetmore performed at the star-studded second annual Hangar Party, hosted by Ryan Aviation Group’s Dan Ryan and Autobus’ Jeremy Maul, on Tuesday, October 21 on the tarmac of a private hangar in the Nashville International Airport (BNA).
The impressive event featured Autobus showcasing its newly launched Pullman Coaches, while Ryan Aviation Group wowed attendees with a Global Express.
The Hangar Party also offered guests a first look at the upcoming menu from Craig’s, the famed LA celebrity hotspot set to open its second location in the Gulch later this fall. As the sun set over the tarmac, attendees enjoyed passed hors d’oeuvres throughout the expansive hangar while exploring luxury jets and buses from Ryan Aviation Group, Autobus, and Pullman. Espresso Martinis were also served via a living cocktail wall from a white-gloved hand through a curtain.
Partners including Prevost, Mercedes-Benz Music City, MACK Trucks, Best Brands, Modern Luxury, and Call Sign Watches showcased premium products that embodied the evening’s high-end atmosphere. Professional photographer Katie Kauss was also on hand taking photos of guests in front of a restored 1943 Douglas DC-3C, a historic vintage aircraft, that was flown in specifically for this event.
Before the evening wrapped, former Ryan Aviation Group CEO Dan Ryan and newly appointed CEO George Wozniak took the stage to formally welcome guests and Tucker Wetmore for his performance.
“Thank you everybody for showing up,” Dan Ryan said, graciously thanking guests for attending the annual event. “Like last year, we just want people coming to have a good time. Let’s keep this thing going every year. Congratulations to Jeremy on Pullman Coaches this year. We just really appreciate you all being here. Have a good time, that’s all it is about. Just go where the love is, have fun and be kind to each other.”
“I look around the room, and since moving to Nashville, this is what we envisioned,” Wozniak added. “To see [this event] come to life is such a fantastic thing for all of us. To Dan and Maggie [Ryan] and their vision to bring the company here… my wife supporting our move here… We’ve got our team in town from all over. Clients and friends from the UK, from California, and we get to bring them here and show them the heartbeat of our company, which is Nashville. You guys have welcomed us with open arms.”
The night concluded with a laid back performance by CMA New Artist of the Year nominee Tucker Wetmore, who captivated the crowd with a hit-filled set featuring his No. 1 single “Wind Up Missin’ You,” “3, 2, 1,” and his viral anthem, “Brunette.” Wetmore, who sat at and played a Nord Keyboard, also performed an amazing cover of “Keep Your Hands to Yourself” by The Georgia Satellites.
“Man thank y’all so much, thank you, Ryan Aviation. I love y’all have a good night,” Wetmore said.
