East Nashville
The 5 Spot is the heart of East Nashville's music scene — a neighbourhood bar and venue that programmes with genuine eclecticism and serves as a gathering point for the community of musicians, artists, and creatives who have made East Nashville one of America's most interesting neighbourhoods. The venue's Monday night Motown dance party has become legendary, and its general commitment to fun, unpretentious music-making creates an atmosphere unlike Nashville's more tourist-oriented venues.
The 5 Spot opened in 2006 in East Nashville when the neighbourhood was just beginning its transformation from a forgotten working-class area to one of Nashville's most creative districts. It has grown alongside that transformation while maintaining its unpretentious neighbourhood character.
