Nashville, day by day

Nashville's tracked calendar is the deepest music bench on Dayfari: 157 listings across 34 venues, 121 of them music. The venue table is the city's honour roll. The Bluebird Cafe leads with 21 listings, the listening room where songwriters play in the round to 18 tables, 8 bar seats and 8 church pews, as its own listing counts them. Then 3rd and Lindsley with 16, Bridgestone Arena with 15, The Basement with 14, the Ryman Auditorium with 11 and The Basement East with 9. The Grand Ole Opry's OPRY 100 run at the Opry House sits in the feed too, six dates of the centenary celebrations.

Most of those listings cluster in the autumn snapshot our feed holds; the one production still running is the Nashville Farmers' Market's Farm Sheds season, 51 dates through Feb 7. Treat the page as the standing circuit, refreshed as rooms publish: in Nashville the rooms are the story, and this is the only page we run where a cafe with 34 reservable seats out-lists an arena. Louisville is the nearest neighbour page, 250 km.
