Ryman Named “Best Music Venue”

Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium has once again been voted Best Music Venue by Tennessean readers choice poll, Toast of Music City. The announcement was made last night (7/21) during a special ceremony held at the War Memorial Auditorium.

“We continue to be humbled by the amount of love and support the citizens of Nashville have shown us over the years,” said Ryman General Manager, Sally Williams. “This award holds a special place in our hearts because it is voted on by our guests.”

Tonight Show host Jay Leno mentioned the Ryman this week when introducing Ohio-rockers, The Black Keys. In his introduction, he mentioned the band’s scheduled performance at the historic venue August 12 calling it “a great room!”

The historically cool Ryman has a full calendar of a variety of upcoming events including Crowded House, August 2; Natalie Merchant, August 29; indie-veterans The Pixies on September 10 and 11; and country music’s “Gentle Giant” Don Williams, October 20 and 21. A complete schedule of events can be found at www.ryman.com.
