25 years ago, John Taylor created The Honky Tonk School.
We book up to 400 shows per week.
Members of The Honky Tonk School perform at Nashville's most famous Honky Tonks:
Tootsie's Orchid Lounge
Rippy's Honky Tonk
Honky Tonk Central
& Kid Rock's Big Ass Honky Tonk
We host an open call audition every Saturday, offering artists a unique opportunity to learn and grow within our organization.
