Immerse Yourself in Country Music

I don’t think we could talk about Nashville without talking about country music. It’s the country music capital of the world and the city that helped but the music famous. Country music originated in rural parts of the South and the West. It started with folk music from Appalachian musicians. They would tell stories about their lives over fiddle, guitar and banjo playing. This evolved as it moved from rural towns to cities. There it mixed with other genres like jazz, blues and bluegrass.

The perfect place to start your trip is with a selection of music from the city’s greatest voices. Greats like Patsy Cline, Bill Anderson, Dolly Parton and Minnie Pearl. And current stars like Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts and Trace Adkins.
