Family Overview: Nashville, Tennessee

By Candyce H. Stapen
Nashville may be enshrined as the home of country music, but the city soundscape also grooves to the beat of rock 'n' roll, blues, and soul. Nicknamed "Music City USA," Nashville has been home to the Grand Ole Opry, the world's longest-running live radio show, since 1925. At the Opry's museum kids can learn about Minnie Pearl and other legends, while more recognizable names such as Trisha Yearwood, Dolly Parton, and Garth Brooks have all belted out their best during Grand Ole Opry performances. In 2006 the city adds another major concert center when the new Symphony Hall debuts in September. Read More
