Nashville photographer David McClister’s work focusing on the Americana music artists will be on display at Nashville’s legendary Bluebird Cafe for the next several months.
From a report in Sidelines, the student newspaper of Middle Tennessee State University:
Debuting in conjunction with the 16th annual Americana Music Festival, the collection of 32 prints focuses predominantly on Americana music artists known for their songwriting and who previously have played the Bluebird’s hallowed stage. Names include veterans such as Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell as well as more contemporary singer-songwriters Jason Isbell, Kacey Musgraves, Patty Griffin and Sturgill Simpson.
The exhibit, which opened in late September, is scheduled to run for at least six months, including next year’s Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival April 5-9, 2016.
