About Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum:
Joe Chambers was an accomplished musician and songwriter, and, as a couple, Linda and Joe opened a chain of guitar stores, Chambers Guitars. The couple co-founded and opened the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum in 2006 on 6th Avenue South. They relocated to what is now known as the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum at Nashville’s Historic Municipal Auditorium in 2013 and also houses the GRAMMY Gallery. 

The museum, revered by artists including Keith Richards, Garth Brooks and Neil Young, recently added exhibits featuring Glen Campbell, Alan Parsons, Marshall Tucker Band, drummer Stan Lynch, and Johnny Cash's 1954 Plymouth Savoy.

The mission of the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum is to honor all great musicians regardless of genre or instruments. This is done by exhibiting the actual instrument they used to record some of the most iconic songs in recorded history. Not only does the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum entertain local and international visitors but also educates them about the musicians who actually played on the “soundtracks of their lives.” 

The Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum is a 501 (c) (3) charity organization.
“In moments like this, when else do you get to be in a room with all these cats?" — Keith Richards

“You can see the hood ornament on the car if you go to The Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame.
But, if you want to look at the engine and see what’s making it go, then you go to
The Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum.”  — Neil Young

“There’s so many things that an artist sings that aren’t his or her own creation. There’s so many things that you hear that make you love a record that, the truth is, ‘Joe Blow’ could have sang them. Because the song was so great and the signature licks were so identifiable that it didn’t matter who sang them. There are very few records that the artists made, but there’s a hell of a lot of them that the musicians made.”  — Garth Brooks
