I live in Nashviile, a city where lots of people visit for a few days. People visiting sometimes ask me what they should do -- especially related to music, Nashville's claim to fame.
Rex Hammock: Music City is not just country music as this instantly classic venue is state-of-the-art and acoustically astounding home of the multiple Grammy winning Nashville Symphony.
Rex Hammock: Look for any reason to attend a concert in this beautifully restored musical treasure, regularly cited as one of the best musical venues of its size in the U.S. No bad seats and incredible acoustics.
Rex Hammock: In the Green Hills, a close-in suburb with the city's best concentration of up-scale retail, is this "songwriters' venue," a unique Nashville tradition. Now owned by non-profit Songwriters association
Rex Hammock: One of bluegrass music's iconic venues used to be the only night-spot you'd find in the rail yard area of Nashville called "The Gultch." Now it's a trendy residential and nightlife area of downtown.
Indie Movie Theater · Hillsboro West End · 38 tips and reviews
Rex Hammock: 2 screens, bar and steady blend of indie, international and documentary films - best "art-house" in Nashville. Also a solid, small music venue w/ history that includes being home of Grand Ole Opry.
Rex Hammock: On Vandy Campus in Blair School of Music bldg. 2nd only to Schermerhorn Symphony Center in acoustical quality in Nashville w/ lots of free recitals and concerts. An under-appreciated gem for locals.
