Music City

I’m in Nashville this week for some pickup shots and to pump up my B-roll. I’m feeling extremely positive about the great interviews we’ve had and the private concert in the Magic Room with legends like Wood Newton, Mike Loudermilk and Robin Ruddy. Feeling blessed to get an interview with up-and-coming singer/songwriter, Ariel Jade, who just debuted her new song, “Hard to Trust a Man.” She is my kind of woman … she sings, writes music and can parallel park on a busy street.

Tonight we’ll go to the Opry to see Mandy Barnett, who we interviewed a few months ago. Another high point of this trip was a tour of RCA Studio B where Elvis recorded dozens of hits. The tour guide from the Country Music Hall of Fame immediately recognized Wood Newton and introduced him to the other tourists on the tour, then asked him to sit at the Steinway that Elvis played.
