Nashville: The Pilgrims of Guitar Town

A photographic portrait of Nashville, Tennessee, and of the residents and newcomers who have all bee seduced by the promise of 'Music City, USA'. Photographer Michel Arnaud and writer Robert Hicks wander beyond the Grand Ole Opry and Music Row to a place filled with high hopes, hard work, and, more than anything else, guitars. Likening the city to 'Hollywood in the 1920s', Hicks introduced Arnaud to residents famous and infamous, from the struggling pickers still waiting to be discovered to local legends who bask in the spotlight.
