Storyville Tennessee: Nashville’s new heartfelt haven for songwriters & Southern hospitality
National recording artist Kristen Kelly has introduced Nashville’s newest intimate music venue, Storyville Tennessee, located just 17 miles northwest of downtown. With its grand opening, Storyville Tennessee isn’t just another stop on the music scene; it’s an homage to songwriters and the spirit of Southern hospitality. “I wanted to do something cool & different that caters to the backbone of what the Nashville music community is about – songwriters who have something worth saying,” says Kelly, who co-created the venue with her husband, Bradley, by transforming their own Tennessee home.
Storyville Tennessee is designed as a “listening room meets Southern hospitality with a Texas Style BBQ supper.” This fusion captures the down-to-earth, community-driven essence that defines Nashville’s music culture, offering an intimate setting where artists can share their work with attentive audiences. All shows run from 6 PM to 8 PM, with general admission seating and a limited number of tickets for each performance. Guests are encouraged to buy tickets in advance, ensuring a cozy, exclusive experience.
In addition to live music, Storyville Tennessee offers a full sensory experience, complete with Kelly's family BBQ. The combination of a satisfying supper with soulful music provides a warm, memorable evening for music lovers looking to enjoy authentic Southern hospitality.
Storyville isn’t just a music venue; it’s a versatile event space available for private gatherings, listening parties, photo and video shoots, and even intimate weddings. The venue’s unique character shines through in every detail, from its cozy ambiance to the charming gift shop on-site, where guests can explore handmade jewelry, natural remedies from Folk Remedy, loose leaf teas, candles, and more.
Originally from Lorena, Texas, Kelly brings over 20 years of music industry experience to her new venture. Her deep-rooted passion for songwriting and her dedication to the Nashville community are evident in every aspect of Storyville Tennessee. The venue invites guests to step into a welcoming space where they can experience Nashville’s music scene in a new way: raw, honest, and with a touch of Texas flair. Storyville Tennessee promises to be a go-to spot for locals and visitors alike who crave meaningful music and a taste of Southern warmth.
