Alabama – Song of the South Exhibit
Check out the exhibit that traces the musical beginnings, the challenges, and the successes of this Country Music Hall of Fame band.

Cousins Jeff Cook, Teddy Gentry, and Randy Owen formed their first group as teenagers in small-town Fort Payne, Alabama. For a decade, the band honed its unique, crowd-pleasing blend of country music and Southern rock, playing nightclubs in the Southeast. In 1979, the group recruited Massachusetts-born Mark Herndon to become their drummer, and the band signed with RCA in 1980. Alabama would go on to become one of the most beloved bands in the country, scoring over 40 chart-topping singles, selling more than 70 million albums worldwide and setting concert attendance records.

Music City Irish Fest is growing and is likely to become the #1 destination for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in the world (other than the Emerald Isle itself). Events celebrating authentic aspects of Irish culture will be available all over Nashville. For the sports fans, the Nashville Gaelic Athletic Club will be hosting their annual hurling tournament – a traditional Irish sport played in every county in Ireland and is the fastest game played on a field. For those who love theater, The Final Days of Wolfe Tone, a heart-wrenching original play deeply exploring the character Theobald Wolfe Tone who gave his life in the attempt to free Ireland, will play at TPAC. For history buffs, The Hermitage will celebrate the 250th birthday and Irish genealogy of President Andrew Jackson and his family connections to Ireland. Come trace your own heritage to see if there is green blood flowing in your veins. Of course, one cannot have an Irish celebration in Nashville without music. Altan and The Chieftains, two of the most iconic bands in the history of Irish music will be thrilling audiences with their foot-stomping jigs and reels. McNamara’s Irish Pub is the heart of Nashville’s Irish food and drink and is the place to be on St. Patrick’s Day! This March, Music City has something Irish for everyone Go Green. Go Nashville. Go Ireland.
