It started in 1997, when Greg set down roots in Nashville, drawn to its Southern charm and the magnetic pull of its food and beer scene. Whether it was the smoky brisket joints or the honky-tonks where cold beer and warm conversation flowed freely, Greg soaked in every moment—and soon, he became the guy everyone called for recommendations.
“Where’s the best late-night diner?”
“Where should I stay?”
“Which place does hot chicken the right way?”
Greg knew the answers—because he’d tasted, toasted, and lived them all.
And when people ask, “What’s the best way to experience Nashville?” he simply grins and says: “Follow me.”
When visitors step into Nashville, they often have visions of Broadway’s neon lights, the Grand Ole Opry, and plates piled high with hot chicken. But beneath the surface—beyond the bustling crowds—lies a Nashville that only locals know.
That’s where the Nashville Local’s Guide comes in.
Founded by a true Music City insider, this guide wasn’t just built—it was lived. It’s not about cookie-cutter recommendations or tourist-packed itineraries. It’s about uncovering the heartbeat of Nashville: the dive bars where legends got their start, the BBQ joints with sauces that tell a story, and the hidden alleyways where live music spills into the streets.
When visitors and new residents crack open the guide, they don’t just plan a trip—they craft an experience.
