You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at this iconic area from someone who’s been in the writing rooms, worked with musicians who knew the legends, and lived the musical heartbeat of this town. We’ll walk past the studios and landmarks where country and rock ’n’ roll history were made. Along the way, I’ll share some of my own experiences and maybe even play a tune or two. It’s laid-back, personal, and different every time. My goal is to keep it fun and meaningful with real stories from the road and the Row.
