Bristol Listening Room at the L.C. King Building, 24 7th St., Bristol, TN

The few women who recorded at the 1927 Bristol Sessions were often the only women in a mostly male group. About a dozen of the 50+ musicians there were women. Across old-time music, they were often paid less than the men and family duties frequently cut their careers short. Their songs are part of the story that started here.
On November 20, "Her Song" puts women center stage in Bristol. All-female lineup. Songwriter rounds. Acoustic tributes to country's female legends.
