3rd & Lindsley Bar & Grill   

3rd & Lindsley Bar & Grill is one of the few blues bars in Nashville. Located at the end of an office complex in downtown Nashville, the L- shaped club hosts live blues, jazz and occasional adult alternative-type shows seven nights a week. The club has music, food and drink specials during happy hour, with local and touring acts taking the stage later in the evening. Local favorites like Jonell Mosser, Etta Britt and Rick Moore have designated this relaxed club their second home, and the ultra-talented Wooten Brothers take the stage on Wednesday nights. Large crowds ensure that a seat at the bar is rare, and tables in the long, narrow seating area fill up fast. -- Heather Johnson
