Album Notes

God in Music City
The Sounds of Religion in Nashville, Tennessee

This recording brings together a rich variety of artists who individually contribute to a complex understanding of how we perform religion and spirituality, yet simultaneously provides a strong collective voice how one urban community performs religion on a daily basis. God in Music City focusses on the ways in which local and regional identity is both formed (and informed) by religious and musical practice Nashville, Tennessee—“Music City USA”.

How does music shape our religious identity? How does our religious and spiritual experience shape how we listen to, perform, or otherwise experience music? And how does location (Nashville, in particular) shape these inter-related issues? In what sense is the music industry shaped by, or a shaper of, religion? Is music a religion in Nashville? Is religion made of music in Nashville? Addressed in the texts of individual tracks are responses to these questions by artists as they explore these and related issues while engaging the ways in which music and religion are performed in specific Nashville contexts (and in other Southern contexts more broadly). This recording project grew out of the efforts of a cohort of scholars at Vanderbilt University focusing on “Music, Religion, and the South” sponsored by Vanderbilt’s Center for the Study of Religion and Culture.

This CD is excellent. I loved the way how it blended together several different types of Christian music. I also enjoy the diversity of the artists. This compilation truly provided a blessing in my life, and I'm positive it will do the same for others. God bless
