  • Music Row– Music Row in Nashville developed in the 1950s as a center of the recording industry. Business was so brisk that when WSM announcer David Cobb casually referred to Nashville as 'Music City U.S.A.' during a 1950 broadcast, the term stuck. Furthermore, it is not only one of its main roots of rock & roll but mutually supportive of its development in many ways. Elvis's signing by RCA Victor was facilitated by Julian and Jean Aberbach, owners of the prestigious Hill & Range publishing firm, in exchange for the publishing rights. With his signing, RCA acknowledged the need for a branch office in Nashville. It was there Elvis's first RCA recording sessions occurred. Nashville played an even more crucial role in the career of the Everly Brothers who signed as songwriters to Acuff-Rose in 1955. The result was a string of classic hits, including "Bye Bye Love" (#2 on the pop charts in 1957), "All I Have To Do Is Dream," "Wake Up Little Susie," and "Bird Dog." Nashville's stature was growing in the music industry, and several New York and Hollywood-based publishing companies set up offices in the city. As rock & roll now dominated the airwaves and country sales dropped, record executives realized that country must modify its format to compete and "cross over" onto the pop charts. Two of the chief architects of this transformation were Owen Bradley and Chet Atkins. Bradley, a former staff pianist and bandleader for WSM, was owner of one of the first recording studios on what was soon to be known as Music Row, Nashville's Sixteenth Avenue South. Atkins, a virtuoso guitarist, had been working part time as an A&R assistant for RCA since 1952 and was appointed to run its new Nashville studio in 1957. Each found a way to soften and sweeten country music. Mellow strings and vocal choruses were added, and the smooth, sophisticated result was eventually dubbed the “Nashville Sound."
