[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

My Administration is proud to support the arts and humanities as essential pieces of American might and dynamism.

The Museum tells the story of country music in many ways—sometimes via student art exhibitions. Make plans to visit "All I Am," an exhibit created by Nashville students in collaboration with artists @Kyshona and Elisheba Israel Mrozik.

On April 1, 1967, when the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum opened on Music Row, it looked like this. The Museum was designed to resemble a stylized, elegant barn. The Museum opened in its current downtown location on May 17, 2001. More: https://t.co/UfpjhossKC

Throughout 2022, the Museum served as a cultural beacon—history was honored, music was played, and truth was told. Our thanks to all who visited in person or online, supported the mission, and sought light through music.

Pause here to reflect on moments from a remarkable year.

“Anita Kerr helped Nashville achieve world-class stature as a music center through her roles as a gifted arranger, producer, and leader of the lush vocal quartet the Anita Kerr Singers. Her voice and her creativity expanded the possibilities for country music.”

—Kyle Young, CEO

“Loretta Lynn's life was unlike any other, yet she drew from it a body of work that resonates with people everywhere. In a music business that is often concerned with aspiration and fantasy, Loretta insisted on sharing her own brash and brave truth.”

—Kyle Young, CEO

“Nashville’s musical legacy is elevated by Ray Edenton’s rock-solid, highly inventive rhythm guitar. He was a significant factor in more than 10,000 recording sessions and is one of the many hidden heroes of Music City.”

—Kyle Young, CEO

Bluegrass stalwart Roland White’s death, April 1, 2022, represents a great loss to the world of music. The Grammy-winning mandolinist and guitarist performed and was interviewed at the museum in 2019.

PS I wrote this tweet all by myself in case you were wondering 😑

@DamonAlbarn I was such a big fan of yours until I saw this. I write ALL of my own songs. Your hot take is completely false and SO damaging. You don’t have to like my songs but it’s really fucked up to try and discredit my writing. WOW.

[Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum @countrymusichof]

In a year when the world continued to struggle, we called people home. Throughout 2021, the Museum kept the fire burning with new exhibitions, programs, and the core work around our mission.

Watch moments from a challenging, unpredictable, and remarkable year here.

Kane Brown on headlining MSG: "When you think about all the names that have gone through there, it’s just like: 'I’m a nobody artist from Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., and I’m actually going to be headlining the arena that they’re all talking about.'" https://t.co/JAzOGSBECh

“Ralph Emery allowed fans to get to know the people behind the songs. His conversations revealed the humor and humanity of countless country music stars. Above all, he believed in music and in the people who make it.”

"Dallas Frazier is among the greatest songwriters of all time. He could convey infectious fun with 'Elvira,' and then write a song as sad and true as 'Beneath Still Waters.' He lived a beautiful life of a beautiful mind."

Our 8th most-read story of 2021: A look inside the new National Museum of African American Music, a stunning high-tech affair that's definitely worth a visit when you're in Nashville. For the @AmericanAir magazine: https://t.co/SOyz5PalsU @theNMAAM @theryman @countrymusichof

Our music editor @goosetrax does a tremendous amount of work year round shining a light on Nashville artists. But with the 2021 Year in Music issue, he and all of our remarkable contributors have outdone themselves.

Great issue, gorgeous cover. Online now, hitting stands today.

Congratulations to @HankJr, @martystuarthq and Dean Dillon on your induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Great to celebrate your achievements in-person last night at your Medallion Ceremony.
