What People Are Saying About Bluebird Cafe

In Short
No other place in town is more closely associated with the struggles of Nashville songwriters than the Bluebird Cafe. This is where Kathy Mattea and Garth Brooks got their starts. The club owner holds auditions every four or five months for the coveted Sunday Writers' Night slots in search of the next big name. Most folks in the crowd are songwriters, too, although expect a handful of talent scouts and fans of acoustic music.

Fun place to go. You can hear singer/songwriters perform their own stuff. Was fun to just go and soak in the atmosphere. Was very small, so get there early.

Sure, anybody can get their song heard at the Bluebird...but I live in KC, MO...just want to get my song heard...if you're interested in hearing "Give a handshake with the RIGHT hand" ...about a lefty who is taught by his hard-working father that although he writes and throws left handed, he must "song title" 'cause right is RIGHT, right is true, you're saying what you're gonna do when you "song title"... and thanks...anybody know how to get this song to Tim McGraw?...his dad was a lefty...sorry, this forum won't allow website addresses...so google "live band karaoke KC doug nelson" and you'll get my site...I hope

Bluebird Cafe is where you SEE AND HEAR who wrote that Country song. Please SHHHHHHH. We are here to HEAR the music not your conversation. That said, this is a SMALL room that SELLS OUT each show. Many tables (Christine Lavin) )and you must buy food to sit at, Please tip well since this is the waitress income. Great view to the stage except one bar seat I had for Wade Hayes. All the best writters in Nashville try their new songs out here and play songs they have wrote that are famous already. BEST PART this IS a SMOKE FREE Club. NOT TO BE MISSED always a great nite at the Bluebird Cafe. 10-Stars. (2006 July 18)

Know Before You Go:

Monday early shows are open-mic nights, where names are drawn out of a hat. You can't lose on the late-night Monday slot, though, when Mike Henderson and the Bluebloods crank through a gut-wrenching set of blues.
