From country and bluegrass to rock and roll and the blues, musical roots run deep in Tennessee. The state capitol (and Country Music Capitol of the World), Nashville, is home to the Country Music Hall of Fame as well as The Grand Ole Opry, the longest running radio show in the U.S. where country music legends share the stage with aspiring newcomers. Even the “King of Rock and Roll” himself, Elvis, called Tennessee home at his famous Graceland estate.

In this design, soothing colors and the images of piano, guitar, banjo, vintage microphone, and musical staff celebrate the music that has become synonymous with Tennessee and the people who live there.
