Locations & Attractions|Bluebird CafeFeaturing a rich history the club offers an array of performers and their songs for the benefit of its patrons. Originally conceived as a restaurant with the occasional musical performance, today the focus has shifted to being a music venue first and a restaurant second. Bluebird Café is famous for its intimate and acoustic performances which involve artists performing with a minimal of supporting instruments. Generally performers at the club are only assisted with a solo guitar or a piano. There is no doubt that acoustics is where the emphasis is placed on at the club. Another rule that is generally upheld in the café is that artists do not play cover songs and must have their own original content. Bluebird Café has gained a reputation for providing the best original country music and acoustic music seven days a week. New writers must first pass an audition process before they are allowed to play on the Sunday night show. The entrance for this special performance on Sunday nights is free and as an additional benefit there is usually a special hit songwriter performing as the finale. Though the café started out with limited musical performances, over time more people began to discover the Bluebird Café and wanted to perform there. The fame of the café really sprang to light when some of its regular performers began to land record deals and yet still continued to play at the café attracting more guests and performers. It is for this reason that the café eventually became one of the most sought out venues to play in. Bluebird Café features a very intimate and private atmosphere as it features just 21 tables which are available by reservation only, though for certain shows there are an additional 25 spaces around the club that are available on a first come first served basis. Due to strong demand for these limited places, it is advisable to come to the café early, if not making reservations. To make reservations visitors can call on (615) 383-1461 between 11:00am and 4:30 pm on weekdays. The café’s food offerings include light fare that is still substantial. Guests have the option to choose from a range of different appetizers, entrees and even desserts. The offerings of the menu tend to change with time, but can include items such as Baked Brie and Fried Mozzarella sticks for appetizers, a selection of sandwiches for entrees while chocolate chunk cheesecake and key lime pie are options for dessert. Visit Bluebird Café and discover the rich offering of musical talent that performs in its intimate and charming setting that has a rich history of tradition behind it. Choosing a hotel in Nashville, located close to this remarkable destination, such as Millennium Maxwell House Nashville, will provide easy access to this destination which should not be missed by lovers of country music. |
