Event Description:
How did a medium-sized Southern river town become arguably the most important music center in America? A single studio in a tiny duplex house led to what is now known as Music Row, a ten-block area populated by hundreds of talented people whose job is to simply make music. Franklin School of Rock’s NASHVILLE PAST to PRESENT (A Tribute to Music City) will help tell the evolution of this fabled center of music.
It's where Elvis ushered in the commercial rock 'n' roll explosion by recording "Heartbreak Hotel," Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, and Willie Nelson taught mainstream America to love soulful ballads, and Bob Dylan recorded three of his most important albums.
The Franklin School of Rock will perform songs with a “Nashville connection” by artists such as Johnny Cash and Elvis all the way to current rock superstars The Black Keys.
Join the Franklin School of rock as they pay tribute to some of the greats such as the Allman Brothers, Charlie Daniels, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young, Brad Paisley and Ben Folds. There may even be some songs by bands that were staples in the local music scene back in the 90s as well as those that are currently up and coming on the charts!
