I’ve just returned from a trip to the states and spent the best part of a week in Nashville. Man what a cool place. Also, what great people. Met some absolutely lovely folk and made some great new friends.

A very old university friend of mine who now lives in Nashville was able to organise a show at The Basement, which is beneath a record store called Grimey’s. That was fantastic and I really must upload the video. I did the tourist thing but found some time for geeking out by getting around a couple of studios and the Country Music Hall of Fame museum.

Here’s some snaps from Ocean Way Studios, the legendary RCA Studio B and the Country Music Hall Of Fame.
