Nashville
Tennessee's capital city
Nashville is the capital of Tennessee and a major center of the American music industry, particularly country music.
The city's influence is so strong that "Nashville" often stands for the country music establishment itself: Nashville wasn't ready for her sound.
The term appears in compounds like Nashville sound, describing the polished style of country music production that emerged there in the 1950s.
