The Archives Nashville Donates More Than $31,000 To CMA Foundation From Artist Closet Sale

The Archives Nashville, a digital archiving and storage company specializing in musicians’ wardrobe, raised $31,292.39 from the second annual Artist Closet Sale during this year’s CMA Fest.

Fans had an opportunity to shop from their favorite artists’ closets knowing a portion of the proceeds were earmarked to support the CMA Foundation’s mission to provide students with access to high-quality music education and equip educators with the resources needed to sustain their programs.
 
The Artist Tag Sale included wardrobe items from Lauren Akins, Dierks Bentley, Jordan Davis, ERNEST, Riley Green, Tyler Hubbard, Wynonna Judd, Miranda Lambert, Ella Langley, Little Big Town, Ashley McBryde, Megan Moroney, Thomas Rhett, Jelly Roll, Alana Springsteen and Bailey Zimmerman.
 
“We’re blown away by the response and generosity of both the artists and the fans,” shares The Archives founder and longtime celebrity stylist Tiffany Gifford. “To have raised over $62,000 in just two years is something we’re incredibly proud of and we can’t wait to raise the bar again in 2026.”
 
With the extensive wardrobe that musicians acquire over the years, Gifford realized there were no viable wardrobe archiving solutions, so she created the company to help clients not only safely store their wardrobe, but have a digital solution to keep things organized, searchable and accessible using RFID tracking technology programmed into each piece.
