Although Nashville is known as Music City, some of the most important history — songwriting sessions, recordings, rehearsals — took place in either nondescript houses you'd never think were remarkable in any way, or in buildings that were demolished long ago. That can make piecing together the many stories a bit of a detective game.

Enter Brian Mansfield and his page, Nashville Musical History Tour, connecting the dots between ordinary-looking places and extraordinary moments in Nashville's musical history. A longtime journalist and collector, Brian takes his audience along for the ride as he bridges lore and location, turning up legends at every turn.
