Round 9: Tossup 18

The opening chapter of David Byrne’s How Music Works contrasts CBGB with a venue in this city, Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge. This city’s “A-Team” aided the development of a polished “Sound” named for it that displaced honky-tonk (-5[1])in popularity. (15[1])RCA Studio B is owned by a hall of fame based in this city (15[1]-5[1])whose inductees include Jimmie Rodgers (15[1])and (*) Hank Williams. In this city, the Ryman Auditorium is the occasional (10[1])winter home of the Grand Ole Opry. In this city, a street named for Chet Atkins can be found on Music Row, near the Country Music Hall of Fame. For 10 points, the nickname “Music City” (10[1])refers to what city in Tennessee? ■END■
