The Good Road travelled Nashville to ask questions and tell a fraction of the multiple timelines streaming through the pulsing city bursting at the seams. Found some we did and like any good story, they built on each other leading us down roads unexpected and stories richer than we’d imagined.
Planning commenced over incredible Indian food at The Green Pepper Indian Restaurant. Day started with gathering equipment and heading over to Third man records for some behind the scenes access and the several interviews. Hello Nashville…let’s do this thing.
