Each day, we will bring you a photo of the day, showcasing the sights of Williamson County (and beyond). Whether it’s a photo of a local landmark, a park, a photo from an event or just a great photo from the area, we want to showcase our local communities throughout the next year.
Photo of the day: The Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum celebrated the opening of its next major exhibition Muscle Shoals: Low Rhythm Rising. The evening included special performances by:
Jason Isbell performing “Kodachrome,” “Wild Horses” and “You Better Move On.”
Bettye LaVette performing “Choices,” backed by Spooner Oldham.
Spooner Oldham and Dan Penn performing “I’m Your Puppet.”
Muscle Shoals: Low Rhythm Rising is now open for a nearly three-year run, closing in March 2028. The more than 5,000-square-foot exhibit surveys the emergence of Muscle Shoals as a recording epicenter in the 1960s and 1970s and spotlights its enduring cultural impact through today. The exhibit is included with museum admission and supported by OneLouder.
In a small corner of Alabama by the Tennessee River, local musicians, songwriters and producers created a swampy, Southern sound merging R&B, country, pop music and more. The museum’s major exhibit tells the story of this distinctive music and how Black and white creators found a way to work together at a time when segregation prevailed. Studios built a homemade system for cutting music dusted with grit and soul, including FAME Studio, helmed by producer Rick Hall; Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, home of the acclaimed Swampers house band; and more. Hitmakers flocked to this otherwise quiet community seeking a new sound created by homegrown talent.
