What People Are Saying About Basement

The Editor

Citysearch

In Short – Originally a private club, the Basement retains the intimate atmosphere of a members-only speakeasy. Exposed brick walls and sparse decor endow the club with a raw, unrefined character that complements the underground sound. Mature, musically inclined regulars appreciate the Basement's "underground" atmosphere and consistently good music lineup of classic jazz, blues or solo acoustic performers. The Basement only serves four brews--all from tiny Mendocino Brewery in upstate New York.

The Basement is awesome!

by ampegamg

The atmosphere is great, always great live music, bartenders are cool, 21+ only. Saw a concert there with Jedd Hughes, Sweet Eastern Saint, and Taylor Bates. Wonderful show! Very small place, but just a very cool place to hang out at. Anytime you're in Nashville you have to go to The Basement!!!

  • Pros: Always great music, fair prices, no smoking, great atmosphere.
  • Cons: Parking, Kind of hard to find.

The Basement, SMOKE FREE and GREAT LIVE MUSIC.

by awhofan

The Basement, SMOKE FREE and GREAT LIVE MUSIC. Yes this is a small concert venue with few chairs, plan on standing up to see a show. Jedd Hughes is great in concert there. Prices for drinks are fair and up stairs you can go to Grimies CD/Record store. BEST part about the Basement is the SMOKE FREE Concert Hall. (2006 July 18)

  • Pros: NO SMOKING Concert Hall.
  • Cons: Small venue with limited site to the stage. Must stand for shows.

Know Before You Go:

Finding the entrance is a little tricky. Turn onto Alloway Street and look for a small sign directing you to the back door parking lot.
