Photos from Nashville
After Austin we moved to Nashville for the AmericanaFest. Here is a selection of photos of some of the many artists we saw during our week there. The first gig we went to was an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 'Exile On Main Street' which featured well over a dozen acts. Here are a couple of them: the lead singer of Them Vibes (above), who did an impressive Mick Jagger impersonation, and Peter Case, who led the band for much of the evening.
This is Chuck Mead (left), who we saw at 6th and Peabody.

We went on to see the War and Treaty at the City Winery.
Roberts Western World was the venue for a showcase of Americana artists during one afternoon. Pictured below are Jim Lauderdale, Joshua Ray Walker and Tommy Mclain with C C Adcock who sat facing in opposite directions.
Bluesman Larry McCray from Arkansas starred at 3rd and Lindsley that evening.
This was followed by a tribute to Arkansas born Levon Helm, which included Webb Wilder, Shannon McNally and Allison Moorer.
An exciting act at Roberts later in the week was boogie woogie piano player Jason D Williams.
Our last evening in Nashville was probably the best of the lot, with Sister Sadie, followed by gospel group the McCrary Sisters.
The final act was a trio of female singer songwriters: Brennen Leigh, Kelly Willis and Melissa Carper.
