Well, this is Buzz Night, the 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: host of Taking a Walk, and I'm so happy to 3 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: have Sarah Harrison for Taking a Walk Nashville. We're gonna 4 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: do the Taking a Walk Nashville concert calendar. So let's 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: take a look and see what's happening in music city, Sarah, 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: what do you see on the horizon. 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 2: There's a lot of fun events coming up in Nashville, 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 2: as always, but so much packed into this November. I 9 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 2: think I'm most excited for the Country Music Hall of 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 2: Fame Muscle Shoals concert coming up on November fourteenth. So 11 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 2: Country Music Hall of Fame, they're opening a new exhibit 12 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 2: all based around the music of Muscle Shoals. So during 13 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: November fourteenth at the CMA Theater, the house band of 14 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: Muscle Shoals Aces will be performing and some of the 15 00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: featured artists include Tiara Kennedy, Maggoty Maggie Rose, Shenandoah, and 16 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: Wendy Molten, who I know very well. 17 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: Now, when was the last walk through you had for 18 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: the amazing Country Music Hall of Fame. 19 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: It's probably been a few years. I've been there quite 20 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 2: a few times. I've been to a lot of concerts 21 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 2: at the CMA Theater. But what I love about the 22 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame is they're always changing up their exhibits, 23 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: so there's always a reason to go back to see 24 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 2: their new exhibits. 25 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: I think it's one of the best museums that I've 26 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: certainly been to. And you know, there's some amazing ones 27 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: out there, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame being 28 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,199 Speaker 1: one of them. But what I love about the Country 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: Music Hall of Fame is that it touches everything it 30 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: takes on country when it comes to Americana, when it 31 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: comes to certainly the historical part and the legacy of it, 32 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: it just has so much dynamic to it. That's certainly 33 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: how I love getting lost at the Country Music Hall 34 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: of Fame walking through it me. 35 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: Too, And this will be a fun night because we 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 2: get to see how country music made its way down 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: to Muscle Shoals and the country music that was recorded 38 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: down there. 39 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: Now have you spend any time in Muscle Shoals. 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: I have, Yes, I've toured the different studios down there 41 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: in Muscle Shoals, and I have family in Birmingham, Alabama, 42 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,119 Speaker 2: so it's definitely a town I've passed through many times. 43 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: So, since we are talking concerts coming through Music City 44 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: and there's so many of them, and since taking a 45 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: walk Nashville will cover certainly the wide breadth of music 46 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: that is in Nashville, I wanted to ask you, first 47 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: of all, before we look at some particular dates and 48 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: artists playing, what are some of your favorite venues in Nashville. 49 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 2: In Music City there's so many great music venues. The 50 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: Ryman is one. Margo Price is playing there in November. 51 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: We have the listening room the Bluebird Cafe if you 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: can get a ticket. But everywhere you go in Nashville 53 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: there's always music playing. East Nashville there's some great music 54 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 2: venues too, and there's a brand new music venue in 55 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: Nashville called the Pinnacle and that was opened in February 56 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 2: of this year, and Paul McCartney is playing at the 57 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: Pinnacle this November, so that's another great concert for people 58 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 2: to go to. 59 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: Wow, that's amazing, and I'm sure there's even room for 60 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: other places to develop as well. Let's go back to 61 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: the Ryman and well, first of all, when we first met, 62 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: we took a walk up to the Ryman and recorded 63 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: our episode there. But the Ryman remains, certainly for me 64 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: one of my favorite places in you know, knowing that 65 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: Margot Price is coming through sounds like a pretty exciting 66 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: take coming up in November. I would guess that's a 67 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: pretty hot ticket. 68 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's coming up on November twentieth, Great Americana lineup. 69 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: Besides Margot Price, it looks like Rattlesnake Milk Texas Band 70 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 2: is opening up for her, so that'll definitely be a 71 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 2: popular show to attend. 72 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: How about East Nashville in terms of venues, There's a 73 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: place that I got to visit one time that from 74 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: the outside you would be scratching your head about what's 75 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: going on inside there, But when you get inside, and 76 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the Basement, it's a pretty it's a 77 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: pretty amazing venue. What's your take on the Basement. 78 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we have the Basement on Eighth Avenue, which 79 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 2: is the smaller version, and then the Basement East and 80 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: East Nashville. It's like the bigger venue of the Basement. 81 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,239 Speaker 2: But they I've had some flooding issues and tornado damage 82 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: when we had a tornado here a few years ago, 83 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: so they rebuilt since and I've been to many concerts there. 84 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: That's a great venue, and it looks like Thomas Dolby 85 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: is playing there this November as. 86 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: Well, which when I saw that, I was like, wait 87 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: a minute, I didn't know he was still out touring now. 88 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: Thomas Dolby had this song called she Blinded Me by 89 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: Science as it was the hook. But I found it 90 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: so interesting that of all people and of all places, 91 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: Thomas Dolby bringing an act on the road and he's 92 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: playing in Nashville. 93 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, that should be a fun show to go to. 94 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if he's released new music in a while, 95 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 2: but maybe he will for this tour. 96 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: Well. Like some artists when they repertoire is a little shorter, 97 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: they play the hit twice. 98 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: Have you ever seen What's true? 99 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: No, So as a singer songwriter, you see venues a 100 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: little bit differently to go out and play at. So 101 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: what are some of your favorites as an artist going 102 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: out to play at. 103 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 2: I definitely love the listening room. I'm playing there shortly, 104 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: and what's fun about the listening room and that kind 105 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 2: of venue is you know, people are quiet and they're 106 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: actually listening to the songs being played. But it's more 107 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 2: of a songwriter venue, So it's about three or four 108 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 2: songwriters what they call in the round, and each songwriter 109 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: will take a turn sharing their story of how they 110 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 2: wrote the song and then play a song and they 111 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 2: just go around. So that's always my favorite format of 112 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: show to play. 113 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: Well, I want to just throw out something to the 114 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: members of the listening audience that might be from the 115 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: musician community. If you're going out and you want us 116 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: to publicize your your gig that's coming up in the 117 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: near future, certainly you can get a hold of us 118 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: and we're happy to give you a little little props 119 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: and a little publicity there to support Music City and 120 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: to support the music community. So the goal of doing 121 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: this concert calendar is not only to highlight folks like 122 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: Margot Price and acts like Paul McCartney who don't necessarily 123 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: need our support, but we are so pro artist and 124 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: pro musician that anybody that's out there that maybe wants 125 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: us to put in a word happy to do that. 126 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: I hope, Sarah, we've opened up the floodgates by doing this. 127 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: How's that. 128 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 2: I think that's a great point, Buzz, especially because you know, 129 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: it's great that we have so many events and concerts 130 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: happening happening constantly here in Nashville, but when there's so 131 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: many shows going on at once, sometimes it's hard to 132 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 2: break through the noise or sell tickets or get people 133 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: to show up. So anyway we can help to promote 134 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: shows and get people to show up, we would love 135 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: to help. 136 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: So we ask one last favor of those listening. If 137 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: you like this podcast and you want to share it 138 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: with your friends, please do tell the world about taking 139 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: a walk Nashville. Tell the world about taking a walk. 140 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: We're happy for you to share all of it. Lastly, 141 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: we want to share your project that has been in 142 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: the works for a long time. By the time we 143 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: probably play this episode, there'll be a lot that has 144 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: happened for your project. But tell everybody about that exciting project. Yeah. 145 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: I've been a part of an upcoming documentary. It's been 146 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: in the works for probably a year and a half now, 147 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 2: but it's finally happening. We've already done some filming for it. 148 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 2: It includes myself and Nashville artist Wendy Molten and Judy 149 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 2: Pastor and Texas artist Delaney Ann. And it just takes 150 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 2: a look in the life of what it's like to 151 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: be a female in the music industry and maybe struggles 152 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 2: we go through or what it's like for us on 153 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: the road as more of an independent singer songwriter. So 154 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: I'm really excited for people to see this documentary. And 155 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: we are about to do a run of shows in 156 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 2: Tennessee and Texas. We're performing at the Listening Room.

So 159 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: we're just really excited to come together and perform together 160 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 2: this week. 161 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: Well that sounds awesome, and thank you Sarah, and encourage 162 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: everybody to check out Taking a Walk Nashville, and we 163 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: are part of the iHeart podcast network and wherever else 164 00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. 165 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: Thanks Sarah, Thanks Buzz
