Nashville is commonly referred to as the "Music City" because of the sound it generates, which quickly flies across the nation through fresh artists and unique tracks. The capital of Tennessee is home to the Grand Ole Opry House in Music Valley, the Ryman Auditorium and Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Given Nashville's history as a country music hub, a remarkable number of dance halls and taverns scatter the streets of Downtown. Nashville was even granted the very first FM radio license in the United States in 1941 - as if the city requires further validation as a lead in melodic ingenuity in the U.S.
