Scott Simontacchi & Friends performing at The Station Inn.
They don’t call Nashville Music City for nothing, and you’d be remiss to skip out on a chance to hear some great live music while you’re here. There are many ways to do this in Nashville, from the boisterous bars on Broadway to the more staid listening rooms around town. One of those renowned listening rooms is The Station Inn, located in the trendy neighborhood, The Gulch. While every night is different with a variety of singer/songwriters performing, The Station Inn tends to lean towards blue grass and roots. The night that I was there, Scott Simontacchi & Friends performed, along with a few special guests. Other notable acts include Allison Krause, Jimmy Martin, Bobby Osborne, and Bill Monroe. Doors open at 7 pm and music starts at 9 pm. Depending on how high profile the act is, it’s a good idea to get there early to secure a seat and entry. Inside, is a performance hall with eclectic rows of seating and a bar serving draft beer, including the locally brewed Yazoo, as well as no frills snacks, such as frozen pizza, hotdogs, popcorn, and nachos. The experience is a must for a visit to Nashville.
