Word on the Row

Fantastic tours! My family enjoyed the Music Row tour so much that we then took the 12 South tour a few weeks later. Even as a Nashville local, I learned stories and observed details I had never noticed before. Matthew is engaging, knowledgeable, and clearly deeply connected to the neighborhoods he shares. The Music City soundtrack he weaves in along the way is the icing on the cake! Highly recommended for both visitors and locals.

Matthew is such a great storyteller! He held the attention of adults and children alike. I love how he included personal stories, as he is a long time resident of Nashville.

There is nothing like a tour from someone who deeply loves and nerds out on the intricacies of a city! Matthew’s tour was a wonderful experience and value. He is such a resource for a wonderful city. This tour was a terrific family experience. I highly recommend Footnotes if you love the music of Nashville, want to know more about this city, or enjoy niche facts about its wonderful history!

Matthew was informative, enthusiastic, and fun. It was particularly hot, so he was very conscientious and stopped in shady spots. He had ready answers to questions. He was also open to feedback and ideas to add in to make it even better. I enjoyed this tour immensely and would highly recommend it.
