Three Nights in Nashville

My recent trip to Nashville was a huge success.  It’s a city full of opportunity and promise which left me feeling inspired.

On Thursday, the organizer’s of The Outlaw Roadshow (Ryan Spaulding, Adam Duritz of Counting Crows and more) had a BBQ at the lush and historic, Riverwood Mansion for the 31 bands scheduled to perform.  nate and dan at riverwoodOutlaw friends and family gathered to celebrate the upcoming 2 day festival at the Mercy Lounge and High Watt. The Roadshow really is a family affair…a very, very talented family affair. It’s always great to see this rich group of musicians bring their best amongst their peers.
