12 Great Nashville Bars With Live Music - Nashville - The Infatuation

"Blueprint is all Old Hollywood glitz and glam with plush red leather booths, mirrors, and a wide stage right above the marble bar. Thursday through Sunday night you’ll find local and national artists doing what Nashville does best—drinking hot chicken-flavored cocktails (it’s a thing) and performing up on that stage. On Thursdays, the live band karaoke gives you a chance to actualize your “I was discovered at a bar” dreams. If that doesn’t work out, the cocktails on the menu—like the Smoke on the Water with jalapeño-infused mezcal and lychee—are there to help you keep it moving. They also turn into a nightclub later in the night Thursday through Saturday." - bailey freeman, jackie gutierrez jones 2
