Listening Room Cafe – Nashville

Our founder and owner, Chris Blair, is a singer/songwriter himself. As he played around town, he realized he couldn’t find a local venue that he felt had the sound and atmosphere that Nashville artists deserved.

The Franklin location quickly became a local favorite, pulling in huge award-winning songwriters from Music Row that started calling it “the Bluebird Cafe outside of Nashville.” As the venue gained traction, Blair decided to move the location closer to downtown Nashville and Music Row. He opened the new location inside the historic Cummins Station building in September of 2008 and it was there that The Listening Room really built its name and started attracting even more songwriters and artists in the industry.
