We Are Nashville the book was written to inspire a sense of belonging, love, and unity for the communities of Nashville, TN. Originally written as a musical work commissioned for a local music festival (We Are Nashville Festival), this lyrical message has been performed by many ensembles and organizations in Middle TN including the Nashville Symphony. The words are descriptive, with literary imagery representing many of the iconic landmarks seen throughout the city. I encourage you to not only read, but also download or stream the song "We Are Nashville", and sing along with the text enjoying the musical journey to Nashville's Music Row.
