TENNESSEE · USA
Updated: Oct 5
Brief History/Information
The capital of Tennessee is Nashville. It’s known as the "Volunteer State", because large numbers of its citizens eagerly stepped up to fight as volunteer soldiers during early American conflicts, most notably the War of 1812 and the Mexican-American War.
Nashville, TN
Nashville is a very fun town and the talent there is unbelievable! Staying near Broadway is something everyone should do, then it’s just a short walk to all of the bars and restaurants without having to drive and pay for parking. There are so many places to go here, I really can’t list them (and the majority are really good). Here’s a site with the Bars on Broadway in Nashville.
Places of Interest/Walking Tour w/ Bar Crawl
BARS/RESTAURANTS/SITES
Red’s Hot Chicken - right next door to Springwater Supper Club and they allow outside food (I highly recommend you eat here).
Springwater Supper Club & Lounge (Nashville), 1896 - The oldest continuously open and operational bar in Tennessee. They have live music five nights a week, afternoon events, friendly staff, and cold beer. This place has had EVERY Hank Williams (yes, all three) play here, as well as The Black Keys. This is a CASH ONLY. I guess once upon a time, they sold food but not any more. Red’s Hot Chicken is right next door, and Springwater allows outside food (I highly recommend you eat here).
Lynchburg, TN
Lynchburg is a ‘dry’ county, but it’s also home to the Jack Daniel’s Distillery… the oldest registered distillery in the United States. Not much to do but the distillery and lunch at Miss Mary Bobo’s.

Jack Daniel's Distillery, 1866 - Take a guided tour of the oldest registered distillery in the U.S. to see how the famous whiskey is made using iron-free cave spring water.
