Here in Nashville, we’ve got pretty strong feelings about our neighborhoods — and why they’re better than everyone else’s. Acclaimed musician and local treasure Ellen Angelico joins host Marie Cecile Anderson with a guide to the best restaurants, shops, and ways to spend a day in Madison, the still-affordable area just north of East.

Check out our Overlook map of Ellen’s favorites here.
