East Nashville
Skinny Dennis
Honky Tonk · 2635 Gallatin Pike
Named for Guy Clark's bass player, Skinny Dennis Sanchez: 6'11", 135 pounds, dead at 28 in 1975. The Brooklyn original opened in 2013; the Gallatin Pike bar arrived March 1, 2019 and was woven into East Nashville inside of a year.
Came from Williamsburg, but the programming makes the case for itself: Joshua Hedley's Western Wednesday, Wendy Newcomer's Sunday residency, Todd Day Wait, the Coors Country Banquet, Cajun nights with the Pine Island Aces, Joshua Ray Walker shows. A bar that books like a venue, every night of the week.
The layout does the work: narrow front bar, patio out back, a stage low enough to the floor that the band is part of the conversation. That's what makes a serious booking land easy here. The aesthetic stays loose; the bills are doing real work.
