In between Nashville’s 3rd and 4th Avenues, you’ll find historic Printers Alley. Once home to a young Andrew Jackson’s law practice, by the 1890s this little backstreet had become the printing capital of the world. Here, the Hatch brothers’ ink-stained woodblocks and metal type stamped out a distinctive style that advertised many of the first vaudeville acts, minstrel shows, and movies. In time, the area’s tastes would transform the neighborhood into a “Men’s District” with a speakeasy vibe and then again to a booming nightclub destination, attracting music legends to give an authentic soundtrack to these gritty streets. Today, while many of the presses have stopped, the Alley's iconic neon signs still flicker heartily against the twang of a distinctly country music culture, imprinted with unmistakable character and carefree spirit.
The museum has been the home to America's music since 1967. Inside, it presents a vast collection to illustrate country music's story as told throughout two centuries. A treasure trove of historic country video clips, recorded music, live performances and public programs all contribute to an unforgettable and unique experience.
