Before this trip, I had no idea that Nashville was nicknamed Music City. I knew Taylor Swift likes it here and tried to get a record deal in this town, but I thought that was her just being Miley. Turns out they're serious, y'all. This town is all music, all the time, and we absolutely adored it. From a cozy four-man-round at the Bluebird, to the raucous Country-Heath-Ledger-incarnate at Tootsie's honky tonk, to the Southern roots acoustic jam session at the famous Station Inn, everyone in this town has a voice and a guitar and you just want to hear what they have to say (sing). We fell for Nashville, hard.
And one more word on Nashville. Oh-my-goodness: the barbecue and the pecan pancakes. I'd come back just for that.

Just a bit of info on Nashville as Music City:
ReplyDelete"Elvis Presley recorded his first hit on January 10, 1956, for RCA Records in Nashville, Tennessee. He recorded "Heartbreak Hotel" along with a few other songs. The single was released on January 27 and hit number one on the record charts by April. This single sold over one million copies."
And the food sounds great!
Do you believe everything her best friend Lizzy says?
