Nashville South, Macon

For years, Riverside Drive became the country music entertainment center in Georgia, and other neighboring states. People attending conventions in Macon would gather at Nashville South to listen to the latest in country music. Some of country music greats got their start at the Macon landmark. At the young age of 15, Macon native Jason Aldean joined the house band and country music star Razzy Bailey was a weekly fixture at the club. Nashville South also became very vital to the Middle Georgia economy, but all that came to an end on February 12th, 1987 when Nashville South burned to the ground.
