Music that has influenced the world historically came from Tennessee, including striking moments in rock and roll, blues, country, and rockabilly.

And of course no Tennessee getaway would be complete until you’ve seen the theme parks that are Dollywood, Graceland and Opryland. Get out on Beale street, and get a taste of the atmosphere that inspires a wealth of music to this day, and have a beer in a real Tennessee night club.
