Nashville’s Best Bars and Restaurants for Live Music | Eater Nashville

"While Franklin is a few miles south of Nashville, the town offers plenty of its own opportunities to find intimate live music and incredible food. Among the best is Kimbro’s Pickin’ Parlor, an off-the-beaten-path venue inside a historic home. Accented by its Southern front porch — built for pickin’ instruments, naturally — Kimbro’s has transformed the interior space into a bar, a restaurant serving everything from pizza to burgers, and a venue with live music and jam sessions happening nightly. While you don’t need tickets in advance, Kimbro’s may charge a nominal cover." - Kellie Walton
