What customers say

We decided to go inside the record shop and we were so glad we did. There is so much history and information inside including an incredible record/CD collection and memorabilia! In the opening days this record shop only sold through mail orders.

I was looking for less rock and more iconic Nashville. In 3 days I visited here about 5 times and the music never disappointed. Bartenders were great. The vibe was exciting without the manic Vegas feel. Even stopped in a couple of times before noon and the singers were great. Cant wait for my next time.

Great collection of country cds, vinyl, books and movies. Loved getting to walk around and see all the decor and memorabilia from those who had performed at the midnight jamboree. A must see when in Nashville and for any true fan of country music.

Late night magic at Ernest Tubb Record Shop with Mix Hawk 🎶 He played a killer set of favorites and kept the real Nashville sound alive. There’s nothing like hearing these songs sung by a voice this good in a room with this much history. A perfect, intimate Monday night. 🤠🎸
