Description

Founded in 2016, the Nashville Walls Project has brought over fifteen artists to Nashville, providing them with the opportunity to leave their mark on the growing city. Originally a one-time event sponsored by Gibson Custom Division, event-turned-project was started by Eva Boros and Brian Greif (1960-). Artist Mike Shine and his crew completed the mural in 2016. Directly across from the historic RCA (Radio Corporation of America) Studio B is a mural of a young Chuck Berry (1926-2017) riding a snapping turtle with a young Hank Williams (1923-1953) riding a crawfish. The pioneers of rock 'n' roll and country music, both wearing cowboy hats and guitars, welcome visitors to Music Row.
